Rust removal
 
What tools would you use to remove rust....Frame rust...Heavy rust.

Don't care if its chemical, hand tools, power tools.

Thoughts?

sand blaster

110 lb. Pressurized Abrasive Blaster

this one works really well, surprisingly.

Knotted wire wheels on grinder, eye protection, maybe face protection. I wear glasses and am an ugly phucker anyhow so you know how that goes......

Go to Texas and buy a frame, then swap it all over.
Less hassle and maybe less cost, especially since 2nd gen frames in the real rust belt LOVE to rot by the transmission cross member, and just behind the front bumper horns.

Anybody seen that rust removing Lazer system yet ?
Company called "Clean Lazer", and it's awesome. New model is CL-1000... Y'all should check it out. There are YouTube videos.

your missing a zero then you still need to multiply it to get actual price of those lasers

They do work well if have a compresser to keep up. Look around im sure theres places that do sand blasting and can sand blast and paint frame for not to much.

I wouldn't be apposed considering the work involved with my 25 year old Kentucky/ Ohio frame.

Price would be the only factor.
