From the early 70's I was enlisted in the Navy then in the Merchant Marine. 25 years at sea so I assumed by now ship maintenance technology has passed me by. Then I saw the use of needle guns, chippers, scrappers, etc. so I would be right at home. Except we didn't have Shop Vacs to clean up. And we always laid down coats of Red Lead as a primer. We used to mix the final coat of paint into the Red Lead so coat after coat the layers of Red Lead got closer to the final color. I guess the newer paints don't need primer.
Do the Merchants still use Osphlo anti rust or is this banned also?...Locker looks good......enough muscle memory to find the tool even when the gen set is down!
Great job

You could use Ospho. We use a different product for sealing. We do use Ospho for cleaning up rust stains.
Sitting on an empty bucket, done plenty of that.
