[AMRadio] Rusty chassis

[wb3fau at att.net]

Rick, I  have used a product  called Navel Jelly,  made  by Duro.  You  can  find  it in  hardware  and  car  parts stores.  Does a good  job of 
neutralizing rust.  Just be careful  with it,  it  is  a bit messy.  You 
must also  be careful  not  to get it  on  painted surfaces.  Just  follow 
the  instructions.  I  use a paint  brush  to apply it.  Sometimes  it takes serveral applications to remove all the rust.  73 Russ.
