Not much to report. I had no desire to get covered in muck today so I resorted to derusting the upper arm and spring with a wire cup attached to my angle grinder. Both pieces look a lot better. After that, I gave each a coat of Phosphoric acid that I purchased at the hardware store and set it aside to dry overnight. I have not had very good luck in the past keeping rust at bay. This is the first time I am trying this acid technique. I hope it works! Tomorrow I will give it a coat of rusty metal primer and the next day gloss black enamel.
