curing rust
Well after looking at my wheel archers for the last 3 months which had got the rust bug and it being a nice day I got the sand paper out and made a start on the 4 archers.
It's the bit where the wing is bent in about 2/3 of an inch and about 5-7 inchers from the bottom were rusty. I had done them before but the rust came back even though I used hamerite rust cure [ which I now think only cures the rust to 3-4 micros ]so if you have more than that it just comes back
Well I started at 1pm and it took 2hrs as I rubbed the archers to bare metal this time than treated the pin rust with the rust cure then painted with dark green hammerite paint [ good match for BRG ]. :woo2:

btw - silver hammerite is nearly identical with MG's platinum silver MNX.
