I own a tower in Aruba that requires a lot of corrosion maintenance. I
still haven't figured out a good way to remove rust, perhaps one of products
that turn rust into a paintable surface is the answer. I regularly do a
quick scraping and then I paint the tower with Brite Zinc
http://www.briteproducts.com . I'm very happy with this product.

I am ready to start the project of restoring an old Hy Gain HyTower. It has
a
number of surface rust spots on about 30% of the galvanized surface. Anyone
have experience in removing the rust and know a better way than the Steel
brush. Any suggestions on what to paint it with all over once the rust is
gone.
Thanks for your help. Van W4GIW
