I have a 1965 dart that has a chrome moly roll cage in it that has surface rust on all the pipes, what brand and product name would you use to remove it  I should have painted when I first got it back from the chassis shop but I didn't  I had paid a up front big deposit to a local guy who made fibreglas, kevelar and carbon fibre parts for a local light aircraft kit parts company to make me a one piece front end, doors and bumpers, ended up he turned into a real flake and I never got my parts hence me not painting the cage yet. I don't want to sand it off so any help on what to use to clean it up is really appreciated by me

I don't want to sand it off so any help on what to use to clean it up is really appreciated by me ospho . let it dry completely. wipe it down with thinner and prime it.. ospho will convert the powdered rust and it has a di-chromate to prevent rust. i used it on military jobs 30 + years ago and it met their standards . as long as the rust is tight , it will not be an issue. its a quick and very good way to fix it...  cab , maybe you remember the old way when people used a potato to wipe a cast iron pan or they stuck the knifes in the potato?  the potato has phosphoric acid in them ! it kept things from rusting ! ospho has the same acid and added chemical rust inhibitor also..

Diluted PPG DX579 red scuff pad. You can also use it at only 50 50 diluted and leave wet rag in lomg time for deep pits just do not let dry out. Only use very hot water rinse as cold will flash rust.
Wipe with wipe down to remove contaminates just like anything else before priming with a,wax/grease like PPG DX 330 Acryli-clean wax and grease remover, or DuPont etc brand
My friend dues not use water but laqure thinner and shoots prime.
The directions say water, then wipe down, then prime
But he has never had a problem with just laqure thinner. I have done same as a test and no ill results

works great but be careful of what it gets on, dont ask me how I know   Ospho is an excellent primer, no need to spray any primer paint before top coat painting, you cant beat properly applied ospho for a primer! Copper
