No prob, Spence - stuff like this is what old guys do with their time...

Boeshield was developed by Boeing for the aircraft industry - they used to have pretty detailed info on their site, I used it on my Hasselblads, so obviously I trusted it -

Woodcraft had it on sale as a 3-pak for $22 or so - which is cheap - spray bottle of Rust Free, large spray can of Boeshield and another product for getting pitch off blades, etc - excellent price, used to pay almost that much for a smaller can of Boeshield alone.

Spray the Rust Free on wait a couple minutes and use a green 3M scrubby if it's that corroded -

BTW - it works great on saltwater stuff - but I'd be careful with Rust Free on any painted surface - just used it on my 8" Shimano needlenose pliers and it did an excellent job, then coated them with the Boeshield for corrosion protection -

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
