Oops! Missed a spot. Painted tunnel using a foam brush on a long fiberglass garden stake. Use foam brushes that are made in the USA and they won't melt from the paint

Painted tunnel using a foam brush on a long fiberglass garden stake. Use foam brushes that are made in the USA and they won't melt from the paint I tried to keep the paint away from the edge because it will probably burn off when I weld the patch back in. Going to have to paint the inner side of the patch through the shifter hole. Going to put the shifter bushing in next and cover it with some plastic so I don't get paint all over it. I'll also tie down the new fuel line with a stainless strap so it doesn't rattle.

Rust left behind inside tunnel after acid dipping

The tunnel had lot of pin holes and I couldn't get any of my patches to look right. Eventually it was so mangled I cut it out.

Frame head dipped in rust electrolysis tank. The volume of water does not affect the efficiency of the rust removal so long as you use the right ratio of water to washing soda.

Close up picture of the frame head in a rust electrolysis tank. Use the right ratio of water to washing soda and you can do this on large parts. Keep your children and pets far away! And your nosy neighbors, and your spouse...

Guide hole for cutting hole in frame head. Looks good on the outside but it was rusting from the inside out.

Inside the frame head after dipping in a rust electrolysis tank. Note the crusty mess and flash rusting.

The tunnel was actually pretty clean after I got it back from chemical dipping. I made a mess out of it with prep & etch. Don't be dumb like me because it took hours to clean it out.

Cut a hole in my frame head and chipped out the rust. It was solid enough not to need replacing but there was a bunch of surface rust inside.
