[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 736752, member: 325666"] Ok friends .. Time to discuss Cleaning Derusting and Paints I think .. Obviously I wont be repainting the dish ... Should it be ok ..I think a straightforward cleaning job .. But the Untreated steel pole and the rusted polar mount is another story .. Anyone have suggestions for rust removal which could be emplyed on a power tool of somesort ? My hands aren't up to rubbing it all down manually these days .. The mount is currently grey as it was recently painted all over with killrust ... It was origionally a nice shiny black. What choice of paints are there these days ? I read red lead paint was discontinued for public use some time ago.. whats the alternative now..? The pole will definately need a primer as will the rust spots on the mount ..once cleaned.. I made enquiries about a paint 'system' which includes primer and hard topcoat by Rustoleum .. The paints themselves were expensive ,,,but moreso because they only sold in large quantities .. suffucient for 35 sq mtrs ... I don't think I need such a large quantity ..and at £80+ its a bit ott I think .. Suggestions welcomed .. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
