herculine 98 TJ, question about rust...
 

Thinkin about Herculine for the inside of my TJ, pulled up the carpet and
there is some surface rust on the floor, pretty scattered and especially
near the drain plugs...whats the best way to handle that? grind it off? is
there a product good for neutralizing and protecting in one step? thanks for
any help................

Re: herculine 98 TJ, question about rust...
 

Power wire brush, spray on rust converter, after it all dries, clean with
TSP, let dry, and then follow the directions on the can. You can get three
coats out of one can.

Tri-Sodium-Phosphate (TSP) is a common chemical used for cleaning / prepping
before painting, especially house exteriors. It comes in powdered and liquid
concentrate form. You can readily get it at any Home Depot, Lowes, hardware
store, etc. in the paint section. It's very cheap. It also works well for
cleaning white, exterior house trim with mildew, dirt, etc.

There are rust conversion coatings but you are really better off
mechanically removing as much rust as is possible before resorting to
one of them. In the interior of your Jeep, the best option is to grind
it all off using a wire wheel mounted in an electric drill motor. The
only truly effective rust eliminator is sandblasting, but blasting
inside your TJ would cause you worse problems, so a good substitute is
the wire wheel and then paint it with POR-15 in the areas where bare
metal is exposed. No need to use the wire wheel or POR-15 in non-rusted
areas where the paint is still good.
