I'm doing a frame-off restoration on a non-g body vehicle. I've got a few questions for the experienced about the chemicals I should be using.
I've been grinding with an angle grinder wire brush and getting the metal nice and shiney but it does seem as if some of the paint/rubber coating has worn into the metal. I need to clean this metal before any type of sealant or primer, correct? What would be the recommended metal cleaner to remove anything that has gotten into the pores of the metal?
Also, is there any local chemical that is simply a rust prevention for when I have to take breaks from the car? I dont want a bunch of flash rust but I also want to be able to come back at a later date to continue my work. I saw something they used on a TV show that was clear and in a spray bottle but you have to special order it from a website, I need something like NOW.
Other than that, any advice on what primer would be recommended is greatly appreciated. I'm going to be painting the frame and I've never done anything like this before. Thank you!
