Title: Oxidation Post by cgmarc on 06/23/09 at 17:11:16 I just bought my 95 savage a couple of weeks ago from a guy in camden, sc. I live in Savannah. I have noticed a little bit of rust creeping onto part of the chrome( handle bars and some other areas throughout the bike). Anyone a lowcountry rider that has dealt with this? It's my first bike since being stationed here and I don't know...paint it with rustoleum??? Thanks. |

i bought a rust removing gel. Its a pink gel, you should be able to get in the automotive sections of hardware stores. |

Title: Re: Oxidation Post by cgmarc on 06/24/09 at 19:58:24 Thanks for the suggestions. I've got my entire weekend blocked off for my bike and myself, so it should be sparkling come monday. |
