  • This is how I get the rusting off my hub caps. Just WD40 and some steel wool.

    • @RooneysSears01

      +savagenomore Ya it kinda acts like an oil or lubricant and isn't as abrasive. I just kinda stumbled on it when I did the 69 hydro's hub caps.

    Question for you: I have a vintage 1941 chevrolet hubcap i found in the woods. I don't have steel wool, will sandpaper work to clean my hubcap without damaging the look?
    Because it has some paint left on the hubcap
    Thankyou :)

    • @RooneysSears01
      @RooneysSears01  2 года назад +1

      Hey Jonathan, I think the sandpaper might be too abrasive and would do damage, I would wait and get either steel wool with wd40 or those SOS scrubbing pads work very well too. The soap in those makes a great lubricant as you clean.
