Whoever said "It`s all in the details" sure knew what they were talking about. Look at the before and after pics of the rusty Allen bolt head. Multiply that by 10 or 12 rusty Allen head bolt heads on this bike. And this simple rust removing technique helps take this bike to another level. I did not show it but you will also need a paper towel. After using the detailing cotton swab, roll up a little corner piece of the paper towel. Then jam it in there and clean out the excess Turtle Wax Chrome Polish & Rust Remover. You may have to repeat the process a few times. This Allen bolt took three times to get it looking good. I started this post yesterday was just to tired to finish. Ok, enough about that. Goodbye for now. and Please RIDE SAFELY and Remember to Always...RESCUE-RESTORE & RECYCLE!

Wow, Great tip Hugh. I hate rust in the allen heads!
ReplyDeleteI gotta try this! I just picked up a bike from c-list that's in good shape except for the rust in those tiny spots.
ReplyDeleteI have been wondering how to get those pesky allen recesses clean and now I have a plan thanks Hugh
