How to remove rust??

What is the best way to remove rust?

 

Bought a second hand motorbike and there is some rust on some bolts (inside allen key holes and outsides of cups.

 

{specifically on the bolts that attached the front disc's ( x 2 ) to the wheel / rim.}

 

is there some magic stuff that I can just apply on the rusted bolts, and just rub the rust off with a cloth... {Verimark ..... :)}

shinny galvanized bolts back ..... :)

 

Don't want to loosen the bolts for now, and will only replace with genuine BMW ones.

 

 

Think there was a question like that in the past as well??

Well, first off, you bought the wrong bike.... you'll learn why later in the bike's life. BMW is so 2010. LOL. I got a Yamaha Tenere XT660Z recently - I really missed riding bike for a few years.

 

Those are splines, not allen key bolts. Replace with Stainless Steel = no rust. :thumbup:

 

Btw: afaik, that'll just be surface rust and seeing the condition of the bolts, they'll still last for quite a while.

Go to builders and try the Plascon RemoveAll Rust retails for about R160 for 3L, let me know how it works...

 

Thanks
