    I would be interested if anyone has experience with these types of
chemicals.  When I took off the front bumper of my TR6 there was some
rust on the inside surfaces near the mounting things.  Luckily the
bumper is real thick, so the rust wasn't too bad.  I put some naval
jelly on it and let it sit for about 30 minutes.  Then I scraped it with
a real stiff wire brush and it all came off.  This would be hard to do
to a body panel I think (at least with it still on the car).

     Has anyone used the spray stuff ?  Does it work ?



   Thanks,
      Dean
