Hi there. I really like your videos ..And there seems to be plenty for me to watch ! Excellent content old bean. Very enjoyable to see you saving these cars -etc. By the way, Hello from England.
Ryan truly enjoy your passion and dedication to old cars. I too have a couple 64 c10 and two door 69 nova. Great tech tip with clr can't wait to try it thanks.
A sanding block, or a flat piece of wood, on top of the pad would do the trick. Also, the glove advice is good. Lockjaw would NOT be fun but even a simple cut can become infected. Think of your girlfriend too!
How would you compare the CLR/Scothbrite application you did vs using like Bar Keepers Friend or Comet with a gray (fine) Scotchbrite pad? Thank you for your content. I have a 76 Ventura
Thanks for the video,but I would have liked to see this done on some of the "rustier"areas like the high points on the quarters and on the trunk to see what it does to them.Not expecting it to do as good,just see the end result.Then what's next ? Polish,linseed oil ,flat clear coat ,to protect it from the elements.
I use the same method, and passed the information on two other UA-camrs. I find lime away product work quicker. Then I clay bar and buff, 2 codes polish, three coats of liquid wax... High gloss Turtle Wax. On dark cars I use a anti squirrel polish last. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Ryan great idea! The car is looking good. Are we going to see it on the road soon? I noticed the license plate on the back. And just wondering if we are going to see the '59 Impala coming out of that ravine soon? Looking forward to that too.
Straight up Kleen Strip phosphoric acid from the hardware store works great too. Turns the iron oxide to iron phosphate which is grey. It will discolor paint somewhat if not applied evenly.
Wax on.... Wax off. It looks great! I never thought of that. The green pads are supposed to be non-scratch. The dark burgundy ones will take the paint off. They will also take meat off of your fingers if you're not paying attention. Ask me how I know.
Next one cup vinegar with one cup Don blue dishwashing soap put it in a microwave for 1 minute heated up put in the spray bottle go around spray all the rust and let it sit on it like overnight and the vinegar will eat the rust off
great trick! I use it to remove the superficial rust from the chrome of the motorcycles: a steel wool soaked in soap and you rub the part without crushing. Nice idea of leaving the patina on the body paint .... do you think you can apply a coat of clear coat?
hi l really enjoyed how you removed the rust on that car but after that you should put car polish on it and that car polish on it it is called California gold you can but one at your local orils store the wax kind it is roung and when you open it it is pink in color and when you put it on that car it will bring out the rell blue shine and it will be smooth to so let me know if that works out for you alright
@Randall Johnson linseed oil is EXTRMELY flammable, and i have seen too many people lose garages because of it. i do not recommend using it for that reason
Yeah i means its just surface rust but do you think surface rust forms because there is rust under the paint? or just because of the rain maybe? Idk its wierd , had the same problem but i hit the paint with sanding paper and it came off , so it just made me think if there was maybe rust under the paint ? 🤷♂️
I've used this technique several times. You shouldn't do it out in the sun and make sure to wash it off with a good car wash soap . I'm sure you know the linseed oil trick ?
@@IowaClassicCars Question..... what made you fall in love with the 59 Chevy's? For myself, dad had a 59 Parkwood when I was a kid..... I just loved the styling of that car.
If there is rust on the paint , it must be so thin the metal is rusting underneath, that's what paint is for, to stop metal rusting. I can't see the point of what you're doing.
@@IowaClassicCars you didn't ask, I gave it to everyone for free. Patina is for lazy people and looks like crap. Give me 10 k and I'll paint it and walk away with 9.5k profit.
@@IowaClassicCars now you're just showing your age and lack of knowledge, $500 is enough for materials, paint and bodywork isn't rocket surgery, yes it takes time and effort that flippers don't want to invest. $10k is for a SEMA quality paint job and that car isn't worth it. Understand that I'm not hating on you, I'm hating on patina as something that is supposedly cool or desirable, patina is a french word meaning " needs a paint job "
Vinegar and water works well too. I soak old cast iron carbs in it over night and clean with a wire brush. Works great.
I tried that and it stripped my paint right off
We've used that stuff even on old school toolboxes and it even polishes out sun fade!! It's pretty awesome stuff!! Keep up the good work!!
Thanks man!
@@IowaClassicCars Thank you sir!!

Thanks Chris!
Damn that's quit an improvement. Good job.
thanks man!
Well done...resourceful use of CLR!....also consider applying Boiled Linseed Oil after, to seal the patina..
Nice, keep the pad flat under your hand, you will cover more area and not risk putting grooves on the paint.
Keep up the good work!!
A sanding block, or a flat piece of wood, on top of the pad would do the trick. Also, the glove advice is good. Lockjaw would NOT be fun but even a simple cut can become infected. Think of your girlfriend too!
How did it last over the years did the clr eat the paint over time
The trick is to perform this in a shaded area with the surface cooled. Keeping the surfce wet and allowing the CLR to desolve the rust.
Correct!
Looks great! Bought a few jugs, going to try on my original paint Bonneville. Sitting since 1977
Good luck!

The quarters are actually primer. The paint has worn away....so thats why i didnt do it on that
Great video, the CLR mixture does work great for this 👍
Thanks man!
What do you put on after as a protectant
Thats nice. You can then use a polisher on it after and bring it out even more !
Exactly!
Will it work on the darker rust areas?

Thanks for the tip brother, I have a 48 Ford 4door sedan that will be getting the CLR treatment soon! Thanks for the great videos 👍😎
Glad it helped!
Great transformation!
Thanks buddy
Great info. Thanks!
Great tip!

Yep very soon :)
I assume after doing that you would then use a polisher/wax? What particularly do you use?
Good to know !
Tanks for the demo.
Ryan, nice job and inexpensive. Just some elbow grease. Thanks for sharing. Big Al.
Exactly!
Really great results!😁👍
Thank you!
Straight up Kleen Strip phosphoric acid from the hardware store works great too. Turns the iron oxide to iron phosphate which is grey. It will discolor paint somewhat if not applied evenly.
So, will that yellow residue left on / in the paint buff out completely?
It did for me after a rinse but idk for evrryone
How would i get rid of grinding sparks off my vehicle

Nice, how does CLR work on rust to the metal, no paint?
not sure
Are you going to spray a flat clear or satin clear on top to preserve it ?
The paint will actually stay preserved pretty well as is
Will this method work on the thicker rust like I saw near the corner of the rear window and on the fenders? Thanks and nice job...
Phil
That im not sure of
My dad had the same 65 4 door green impala .283 and a powerglide
Would this work as well on the frame of a truck with light surface rust ?
No
Hi there does this work if your bonnet is black?
I replaced my original bonnet-my bonnet is steel
Please get back to me..
Thank you 🙏🏼
youd have to try it, not sure
Online it says that clr will damage paint, should I still try it?
The results are in the vid, i like it but do what you think is best
That's Crazy!! Cool thanks
thanks for watching!
Nice tip...I’ve used Ajax or Comet scrubbing powder before
Thanks!
Vinegar n water works to
That's awesome !
Thanks!
Thanks for the video

Nice effort Ryan. You're aware the rust will quickly come back to the surface? Show us it again on another video when it returns.
I will. Ive done this on multiple cars and even on my 2 dr wagon. Hasnt come back after 4 years of owning it.
I love the four door hardtop Peter Fonda drove in crazy Mary and dirty Larry
great trick! I use it to remove the superficial rust from the chrome of the motorcycles: a steel wool soaked in soap and you rub the part without crushing.
Nice idea of leaving the patina on the body paint .... do you think you can apply a coat of clear coat?
You could, but i dont!
What yr is your Camaro?

hi l really enjoyed how you removed the rust on that car but after that you should put car polish on it and that car polish on it it is called California gold you can but one at your local orils store the wax kind it is roung and when you open it it is pink in color and when you put it on that car it will bring out the rell blue shine and it will be smooth to so let me know if that works out for you alright
John - thanks for that tip of following up the CLR with some California Gold paint polish. Appreciate it.
Hey Ryan nice job Do ya have to protect it now to stop it rusting again?
in my experience, as long as it isnt driven daily in rain storms or snow, the rust wont come back!
@Randall Johnson linseed oil is EXTRMELY flammable, and i have seen too many people lose garages because of it. i do not recommend using it for that reason
thank you
And it's a FOUR DOOR. YES.
Yup all cars matter!
Hallelujah
Four in the back 2 if they fat 🤷🏻
Four doors means more whores!🤣
@@sal5608 lol yup
A combination of steel wool, Windex, and crumpled newspaper will polish the glass to a high sheen.
Just takes time!
Is it for sale?
Yes it is. Ill have more info in an upcoming video
Will that rust come back tho? After a couple of days?
It didnt on this car lol but i guess im not 100% sure. Might not be a bad idea to wipe it down with wd40 or something afterwards
Yeah i means its just surface rust but do you think surface rust forms because there is rust under the paint? or just because of the rain maybe? Idk its wierd , had the same problem but i hit the paint with sanding paper and it came off , so it just made me think if there was maybe rust under the paint ? 🤷♂️
@@pol-ek3yq i think honestly just gaps in the paint, not rust underneath
Will wd-40 work?
No i dont believe so
By gloves I'm pretty sure people meant something like Nitrile gloves.
Yeah i should
What should you do if you have surface rust after you primer a car ?
redo the primer & bodywork
How to take out water spot
So this is a driver now? Last video you did was first start. Looks like now licensed and on the road.
It will b...check back 👌
I'll be able to remember that
Hope it proves useful!
I've used this technique several times. You shouldn't do it out in the sun and make sure to wash it off with a good car wash soap . I'm sure you know the linseed oil trick ?
Linseed oil is so flammable, i do not use it
@@IowaClassicCars your rags will be just dispose of properly
@@IowaClassicCars hey if you interested in selling that 396 out of 68 let me know I live south of eldon Iowa
Now just buff and polish.
Wasting a lot of money buying CLR. Use white vinegar $2! 4:1 mix with water.
How much can CLR be? 6 bucks?😄
Dam, i kinda want that car.
its for sale, more info in a future video :D
Go over it with that, then a buffer...... Looking good.
Thanks Howard!
@@IowaClassicCars Question..... what made you fall in love with the 59 Chevy's? For myself, dad had a 59 Parkwood when I was a kid..... I just loved the styling of that car.
Honestly im not sure. In the beginning i just hated to keep buying parts from resellers lol
Man u like me a belair nut i also own a 63 impalla ss chevy nova ss 5speed stick 69 firebird
Howdy !!
Hello!
The reason music is bad in videos, is because many viewers, such as myself, watch videos at 1.25x or 1.5x speed, which doesn't work well with music.
All you need to do is the rest of the car. Great
the rust was UNDER the paint. will start returning soon after the solution dries
Thats why people put linseed oil over top, so it doesnt come back
Guys I’m just not into that! Am I the only one left that likes a good paint job?
Paint jobs and labor rates are too high for the average joe
@@IowaClassicCars it's cheaper to paint it yourself, like, a lot cheaper.
I can still see discolourization.
Well yea, stuff rusts because the absense of paint, this method wont fix the underlying problem, it just cleans up the rust
If there is rust on the paint , it must be so thin the metal is rusting underneath, that's what paint is for, to stop metal rusting. I can't see the point of what you're doing.
Looks like crap, patina looks crap. always. Spend the time and do it right and paint it.
He is going to flip the car so the next owner can paint it.
I forgot when i asked your opinion. If you want to donate 10k to paint it....ill paint it whatever color you like!
@@IowaClassicCars you didn't ask, I gave it to everyone for free. Patina is for lazy people and looks like crap. Give me 10 k and I'll paint it and walk away with 9.5k profit.
