So I know a lot of you have years more experience than I and I was wondering if you guy could help me.
on my tonka dozer conversion I need to remove a lot of rust off of it that has collected over the years of it sitting outside. I know some parts are beyond it but i'd really like to save as much as I can. I have tried sanding and a wire brush but they can't get into the hard to reach spots and i'd like to do it at home if possible so sand blasting is kind of a last option.

but as always any help what so ever is handy.

this is the worst of it

thank you in advance :D

I would suggest Naval jelly or Coca Cola I know it sounds funny but it really works

Get a bench top blasting cabinet. This is How I removed rust on various projects.

I know this is an old thread but has anybody ever trued one of these little sandblasters? It's for small jobs, not sure how it would be without a cabinet. Economical.
