I was reading about Rustmort a bit more, and it says it turns the rust to Black and hardens so you can body fill or paint over it?

I would think you want it to turn white?  also how does it affect the rest of the paint?

I have a nice original 81b that has some surface rust that I'd like to try it on, but don't want to ruin the original paint?

It works great on the white because it also has a bleaching effect. I has some spillage onto the red and it left streaks. I didn't notice, so it really started to soften the red paint and lifted a little..... Clearly operator error, not the product.

       Pure nasty rust is a solid brown and that is what hardens and turns black. The white on most Coke machines is only surface rust.

Klean-Strip 1-gal. Phosphoric Prep and Etch $15.95  I have only used it on a few spots and so far it works very well straight out of the bottle. Got it at Homedepot but only a few of the stores in my area carry it. From the research I did this was the best option I could come up with.

Also a little late.. I started out wanting a EM pinball but quickly got priced out of the market, then I found this shuffle bowler that I got for $250.  It's in pretty good shape and almost everything works now... just have a few more tweaks to go. The owner said it was in his basement when he brought his house 30 years ago!
