Hello everyone,
Only recently discovered this site. Really enjoying reading through all the 90 threads.
I have a very good lwb Colorado 3.4 V6 which has a solid but slightly crusty chassis. I would like to use a wire wheel attached to a drill to clean off the surface rust before painting with POR15 and squirting Dinitrol in the cavities.
My worry is that the sparks produced by the wire wheel would be a problem in such close proximity to the fuel tank. Is this in fact the case and if so what precautions should I take to do it safely?
Also, if anyone has any better suggestions about how to clean and protect the chassis I'd be glad to hear them.
Many thanks.
