| Cleaning rusty ports/connections | |
| Posted by: SE30_Neal on 2016-01-26 13:46:09 Any recommendations on how up clean up old rusty ports i believe my se/30 had spent several years in a garage so the ports are some what rusty (be it surface rust) is it just a wire brush and care or is there some miracle way to clean them up that you guys have found? 😉 | |
| Posted by: Byrd on 2016-01-26 15:22:36 I'd go some fine steel wool/sandpaper, wet sand, then once dried spray some WD40 on the ports to prevent further rust | |
| Posted by: SE30_Neal on 2016-01-26 15:28:34 Thanks Byrd, i thought as much a bit of hard work and care attention :-/ | |
