Should I sand just those areas down now and cover them with a bit of rustoleum or sand the whole thing down now and cover it with some anti rust oil? Last edited by David Lee; 01/24/09 12:32 AM.

CRC 3-36 prevents rust and corrosion by displacing and sealing out moisture and by forming a continuous protection barrier against water and oxygen Last edited by David Lee; 01/24/09 12:37 AM.
