So i just got out the 300 from sitting in a garage all winter, did all the spring maintenance, but the frame and A-arms are starting to rust pretty heavily on the bottoms end, anyone know how i should get rid of it, I really dont wanna have to refinish the whole frame, any chemicals that will only remove the rust?

Usually when things rust people sand it and then prime and paint it. Just a thought there bud.

you can pick up the replacement paint and primer at a dealer

my 300ex frame was rusting when i bought it so i just got it powdercoated, and its held up very good and powder coat is way better than spray paint
