removing surface rust from a cab

[Anonymous-0]

I just purchased a year a round cab for an IH 56 series. I thas some surface rust on the cab. What is the best and easiest way to remove the surface rust.

The absolute easiest way to take care of surace rust is to buy a rust converting primer.

I got mine from Eastwood, I just got a spray bomb because I only needed it for my engine and hydra-power on my 1600. Was plenty in the can, and so far so good. I got the heat resistant stuff but for a cab you could go with the other stuff.

Naval jelly will it it clean.. but then ya got to protect the metal.. I like the rust converter / primer idea.. especially if it 'seals..

Just wire brush it with a drill or angle grinder, and then use Purple Power, which you can get at Advance Auto Parts, this is only if you want to paint it.
