      There is literally a whole trend coming out of the Democratic People's Republic of California that would have you go to the junkyard, buy a new hood for your car, strip the paint off, let it rust, then put that rusty hood onto your 2019 Honda. 😆

    I dropped my youngest off at Uni last week, where he is doing a STEM course. He and I have watched your videos since he was too young to understand your jokes, along with those of My old Tony, Big Clive and various others. We have both learned a lot from you. He ended up doing a design engineering A level, so your tear down vids were always referenced whenever he described manufacturing processes, and for a while he wanted me to put a 3 phase supply in the garage and buy a Haas CNC machine. Luckily that passed. If one of your aims at the start was getting youngsters into engineering, you can tick that off. Nice work whoever you are. Gratitude and appreciation from this happy Dad.

Then there is the esteemed Ph.D., which, of course, signifies Piled higher and Deeper.

    If you wanted to put a really solid finish on that: you'd cart that off with steel wheel brush to get most of it off, then rust it, boil it, cart it again: then when it's evenly black and almost untouchable by the steel brush - soak it in oil for 24 hrs to set the finish. Then you would have something which has been "slow rust blued" - and such a finish is damned hard to damage or wear off. Not used much anymore outside of firearms and even then only on higher end stuff because it's labor intensive. Long since replaced by hot salt bluing, then phosphates, cerakote, etc. etc. Still, slow rust bluing, if you don't mind putting the work in, stands up pretty well.

    Good thing there are obedient persons developing, disseminating and applying the knowledge that fills your workshop with tools, fasteners and chemical reagents ... not to mention the wide range of book learning that went into developing the equipment you use to make the videos(audio too) AND, of course the BEER.

    Used to use Muriatic acid working around pools to balance the PH, or do acid wash on the plasters. Stuff always stank. We had several cases fall over in the back of our van and the smell and smoke was something.
    Another guy we worked with dropped a few cases in the road and fogged it all out.

    I left a plastic tub of muriatic acid in my shop overnight with no lid next to the door thinking it would be enough ventilation. Returned the next day and discovered every single piece of steel and iron in the shop had a film of black rust. I learned the hard way, just not the hardest way.

    This reminds me when I started out as a bricklayer, I once used brick acid to clean my trowel and it rusted to shit when I got it out next day. Wire brush at the end of the day keeps it sparkling now.

    Ahh yes good ole parkerizing or as you called it zinc phosphating - there is also manganese phosphate. Works great on weapons as well - the increased surface area and the etching hold onto oil better. Then you do browning and rust bluing. Great video!

    When your bolt is rusty it will meet ASTM 242 High Strength low alloy weathered steel. They are designed by spec and the original patent to do this which is a protective rust coat on the surface.
