I use Tom Cat blocks from Tractor Supply (green bait blocks) I had a hell of a time with those pesty (Woodland Critters) I use them in all my out buildings. They seems to come in waves? Blocks not touched for months then all of a sudden, gone, then start feeding them again. Cats draw Haitians!

Actually I have a gallon of the stuff. I used it on my wife's Jeep and my Dodge with no more rodent issues. Reminds me that I probably need to reapply it from time to time. I'm not sure if the peppermint is working or if its just my dumb luck, lol! Have you had luck with peppermint? Thanks for visiting the channel!

What comparisons are you referring to? Maybe he likes 1956 Plymouths. Is there anything wrong with that?

Christine is a '58 Plymouth Fury.

​@@glenfendermanno nothing wrong with that just the fact that the mid 50s Chrysler products were chrome plated pot metal pieces of crap

Phosphoric is used in commercial rust treatments ,Jenolite, and similar gels.

for bolts i thought about vinegar and then neutralizing them with a tumbler full of baking soda

A product called Metalprep 79 is a phosphoric acid based product and is what I have used for many years to treat bare steel surfaces before priming. You wet down the surface with this stuff and keep it wet for around two minutes, not allowing it to dry, then rinse thoroughly with plain water (if able, you can use hot water, and your parts will dry faster) The surface of the metal will be converted to a thin film which primer will stick to extremely well. Metalprep 79 also etches away the light surface rust that starts forming as soon as you are done sanding, even though it may not yet be visible. I use paper towels dripping with Metalprep to apply it, but on larger items I think I'm going to spray it on using an old spray gun, since it's a challenge to keep the entire part wetted (by the time I've gotten to the end of the part, the starting place has nearly dried). Auto paint suppliers will have Metalprep 79, or you can order from somewhere which is what I had to do.

​@141runn Vinegar works well for getting rust off of bolts, small pieces. I let them soak overnight (but nt longer than that) and rinse thoroughly with water.

@@hatbpto5180 they always flash rust if i just rinse with water

Nice on fish n chips though.

It does not stop rust !

​@@mechanic72he's killing the rust, nothing will stop metal from rusting you can only slow it down and Yes vinegar is used to chemically remove rust by dissolving the rust. Vinegar contains acetic acid which reacts with iron oxide-hydroxide (rust). The product is iron acetate which is water soluble. Vinegar plus baking soda reacts to form a different chemical called sodium acetate. The sodium acetate is actually much better at removing the rust than just regular vinegar due to an effect called "chelation". The same way sulfuric acid removes rest. You shouldn't speak on something you clearly understand

vinegar removes 95% of rust, then wipe with phosphoric acid, once you put sealer over it you're done, wont come back, Have done it over the last 10 years on several classic cars. Also sandblaster is just not an option if some panels, does so much damage you will be mud working it forever.

@@gpoetx good to know, thx👍

The only way I know of to end the return of rust is to sand blast it clean, then wax and grease remover then tin it with lead, once it's tinned the rust will not return wherever the metal has been tinned.
