I've used Molasses quite a bit back in Sydney - I originally read about it on the web and thought "How much good will that do"? and tried it for myself just because it was cheap.
But just as you say, if you leave it in there long enough it comes out really well - some of the bits off my Victa 18 Triplets got a soaking for over 2 months, but they were like new metal when I took them out and washed them off.
Over at my mates place - he had an electrolysis gizmo going - and it seemed to be doing overnight what it took me two months to do with molasses - so I wouldn't mind trying that, but I'm really stuck for space.
I think I'll be forced to just soda blast them - and make sure I really clean them out well.
As for paint - I'd like to stick with the original iridescent blue type colour - if I can't use the Galmet Hmmertone Reef Blue because of the engine temp - maybe I'll give VHT Anodised Blue a go - it probably looks closer to the original blue the the Galmet Hammer tone anyway....
Has anyone used the VHT Anodised paints?? Comments?
