• Everything starts with watching “RJ the bike guy” on YouTube of course, but ended up just getting whatever was off the shelf in laylands. Soaked the BB in the one on the left and then painted the one on the right a couple times. Painting it on makes a noticeable difference everytime but it was time consuming!

  • Do you scrub the rustins off between applications? It is pretty tedious and i often wonder if i wouldn't do better with a dremel and a wire.

  • yea just scrub with a wire brush but to be honest I got bored of it and went and got some heavy grit sand paper... which just made me realise a) how deep the rust goes and B) how surface rust does nothing to compromise integrity of the frame... so I feel like I'm chasing a rabbit hole. just started priming cus if I took off anymore paint I'll have to walk it round to armourtex for powdercoating!
