What is the best method for rust removal on parts that have machined or bearing surfaces?
I have some spindles that have surface rust that I would like to remove but the machined and bearing surfaces are still nice and clean and would like to keep them that way. Thanks! |

I'm assuming this is a stub. If you don't have a blasting unit, grab some blasting media and an empty paint can. Use electrical tape to cover the machined surfaces that currently look good then put it in the paint can. Fill the can with media until the stub is covered and put the lid on. Then hang the paint can from a rafter or some other thing that will keep it suspended.
Then duck tape a palm sander without any sand paper to the bottom of the paint can and turn it on. Go away as the noise is annoying. Come back in 30 minutes to your shiny new stub. |
