lilfuzzer 1 Posted October 28, 2009 had a search and few products looked at but was after some specific advice. the block i have has quite a bit of surface rust what is the opinion of those (you) in the know should I use on the the block to get rid of it. I was going to use a wire wheel on a drill or angle grinder but if their is any left embedded what is the best advice? Was going to paint the block afterwards a mate has painted with some ford paint that he got cant remember nme aat the mo so any ideas from thise on here? many thanks guys!

KADVR6 0 Posted October 28, 2009 i have just done mine and used various sized wire attachments on a drill, and painted directly onto the clean metal with smooth black hammerite. i did a mk2 golf like this years ago and it still looked great some 5 years later.

millerman 0 Posted October 28, 2009 as above really or some kind of good primer and then colour of your choice but you would want something that does not mind heat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
