HAL 49 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Anyone try using muriatic acid or any of the other acids for removing rust. I would be concerned that it would also remove the litho on the cans. If you just use a wire brush, it leaves the can with a smooth, black metal finish, like it's been tarnished. CLR works great, but you basically have to soak the object in it for several hours. The pitting from the rust is never going to go away, which would look pretty ugly in my opinion.

Slyle CMC 25 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 Horizon blue is such a dope color.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LICKERISH 66 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 And its quite possibly the best color coverage wise ever... top 5 anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigmack 13 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 yeah it is real thick, i love the color too. i remember back about 8 years or so ago before i was into collecting cans i got 7or 8 of them from 83 as well as about the same amount of harbor blues from a local harware store that went under back then. thinking back now i kick myself for not buying all of the other cans and the rack and also i kick myself for using them all. but yeah its a dope color. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slyle CMC 25 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 I think out of most colors, blues have some of the best coverage, well all blues except the navy/dark blues. Must be something with the amount of pigment needed to make it thick and opaque Quote Link to post Share on other sites
infamousscribbler 38 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Rusto Night Blue, I'd say it had best coverage for any dark blue I've ever used. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
