    Default AVANZA DIY: Cleaning rusted exhaust pipe

    Hi guys! Recently I noticed rust sa end ng exhaust pipe ni Vanzie...so I decided to clean it...

    Before pics:




    I used the following items to clean the rusted parts:


    Sandpaper - got ung pinaka-fine ang grade
    Wire brush
    Soap and water
    Rags - for drying
    Penetrating Oil
    A lot of muscle power - better than going to the gym

    OT Lang...hehehe i just noticed sa isang photo dito ni vanzie may pusa sa ilalim? loko talaga yung hmmmmpppp 24 hours kaya ang security guard ko

    Questions?
    1. Should I remove the black thing around the pipe or leave it there?
    2. Anong material ba yung ginamit for our exhaust pipe? i need this para macounter check ko dun sa bibilhin ko na protector or something....usually nilalagay naman nila if the product is safe on chrome, stainless steel, etc.
    3. safe ba gamitin yung mga rust converters?
    4. Is it necessary to apply rust converter before painting the area?
    5. Meron bang pwede kong pagdalhan kay vanzie para sila na gagawa nung job? Is there a term used for such service? I would appreciate if you can recommend the store, contact person (yung trustworthy please!) and address.

    TIA

    Iyong rust converter converts rust into something na di na kakalawangin ulit. After that you can use hi-temp paint para ma protect ang previously rusted parts from further rust.

    Kaso you have used penetrating oil, hindi puwedeng ma pintahan kaagad. Have to clean it with soap and water to remove the oil before painting.

    I think mayroon bosny hi-temp paint na puwedeng magamit.

    BTW, ang tiyaga nyo. Hanga ako.
