Painting the Sway Bar - rust and grease
OK - laugh; yes, I'm paining the Sway Bar as I replace the bushings.
How do you prepare greasy rust for paining I used mineral spirits to remove the grease, and rough sanded the bar But I'm thinking there's still some grease in the rust. Guess I could sand all the rust off - but I wasn't planning that great an effort. Your thoughts please. |
You can get grease and wax remover from any body and paint supply shop. I bought a bottle a couple months ago, I think it was about $15 for a pint or thereabouts.

Prime it with a rust inhibiting paint like Rustoleum and you should be good to go for the finish coat ! |
I'd think a little fun with some emery tape might go well, to make sure the majority of the rust is gone before using a rust converting primer.
I tend to go overboard though, so your mileage may vary! |
