- Is the chelation process magic or just beautiful science? The results are clearly amazing either way but will Evaporust remove all the rust from the outside AND the inside of our rusty Range Rover chassis?

For those of us who are not sponsored by CRC, that's about $15,000 worth of Evaporust.
Yup, I did the math as well.
That'd be one hella expensive frame restoration.
Yah. I think I would just get a nice new galvanised chassis. Good Evaporust commercial though 😉
At least. I spent $90 to fill a small 5 gallon bucket part way!!! It's $40 a gallon here.
I think you could have sent it out to be hot dip galvanized instead as an alternative vs buying a new frame or using Evaporust.
It’s a bonkers use case. Pointless really
You could have filled those 5 litre containers with water and placed them into the pool so as to raise the liquid level high enough to cover the entire chassis in one go. It's just a thought!
And a pretty good thought it was .
Ain’t that been proved before in a bathtub, by some famous guy
smart arse ain't ya
@@Soapy555Erika Johnson wasn't it?
Came here to say the same thing. Or large garbage bags full of water.
Watched this channel for the first time ever and it ended up being a 36 minute infomercial for Evaporust.
Haa! Me too. Surely this video should be marked as an ad?
No one is going to do this. You bring the thing to an acid dipper for 3 to 5 hundred bucks tops.
Me too 🤦🏻♂️
Nobody else is going to be trying to save a chassis that’s rusted from the inside. They’ll just get a new chassis in that case.
Everybody who actually needs to do rust removal on a whole chassis can just paint this stuff on.
Or as I said flow the stuff over the metal with an aquarium pump. Just as good as dipping and there might even be an advantage in the agitation effect.
You could raise the level in the pool without having to use more evapo-rust. Get some large plastic tubs, and put them floating on the surface of the evapo rust in the free space in the pool. Then fill the plastic tubs with either water, some breeze blocks, or just anything at all to weigh them down. The tubs will displace the evapo rust in the pool, causing the level to rise. Same idea as those "water saving hippos" that you can get to put in the cistern of your toilet, to reduce water usage.
Well doh.
I said the same thing as you until i read your statement so i deleted mine. There is another way, he could have rotated the chassis 90 degrees so it is hung on its side instead then he could have used a pool one forth the size of the pool he used.
Yep, I'd just started typing that when I noticed your post.
Didn't really matter when it was sponsored by it.
your reading my mind lol, i would've used bricks lol
Just an idea would be to carefully place a few large objects in the pool to raise the liquid level, this would probably use less of Evapo-Rust and reduce the process time. Really enjoy your work Edd. Thank you!
Clean 20-litre cans of oil... heavier than water.
Anything, even bags full of water.
Perhaps a waterbed mattress.
I was about to comment the same, a few buckets weighted down with sand would do.
I'll just put mine here so.. Could have placed a stack of blocks in the centre, reduced the required volume by at least a third.. or place the whole chassis in a thick bag like the tarp mentioned below, in and outlets for the Evaporust..
Nice to see you back Edd, really missed this! Hope all is well, and thanks for the new content.
You’re welcome, been a complicated year but more content already filmed and should be edited soon… thanks for watching
@@eddchinaso u are back then that’s good to hear have a good new year edd
@@eddchina Don't be afraid to put out an update video next time, so we won't left guessing in the dark. This is not TV, this is TH-cam.
@@eddchina Good to see you're back at it Edd! Looking forward to many more episodes of Workshop Diaries.
@@eddchina reading this after watching your latest really does warm my soul ❤
I've used Evaporust for over ten years and it works outstandingly. Having a 500 gallon dip tank is nice, but not very economical. The method I use is a recirculating pump with a small shower head and a small container to catch the material. I've done large projects like bumpers and axles that way. It would reduce the material use down to a couple hundred dollars at most.
Brilliant
That's an idea to keep in mind! Very smart way to get more done with less
But it seems like interior rust is the biggest worry here, does your spray method let you get material inside the parts?
@@markdoldon8852 Haven't specifically tried it but it should be just as easy. Just need to build a nozzle adapter. Could be a simple plugged hose with holes drilled in it. Just need to splash as much as possible over the rust and continuously recirculate it.
Howdy does the stuff come in gel form for brushing on? Anyone know if available in Oz?
I am a huge fan of evaporust! Started using it almost 2 years ago on the motorcycle restorations I've done. Especially the inside of gas tanks. I have found that cleaning the parts of grease and oil first helps preserve the evaporust. You gave the best scientific explanation of the magic that happens I've heard.
Best use of stale crossaint and dog treats ever
Getting grease, oil, paint and loose rust off first is much better for the process and does make the stuff last a lot longer.
Look into electrolysis. It's all but free, does a better job and doesn't stink after.
@@otm646eletrólise corroe o metal junto com a ferrugem e pode abrir um buraco no que você estiver tirando ferrugem com eletrólise, vai por mim em uma restauração o que você não quer é peças danificadas por uma maneira de remover ferrugem que poderia ser totalmente evitável ! 🥴
@@matheustoddynhop142 That is absolutely not true. Electrolysis does zero damage to the base metal, it only removes the iron oxide.
Electrolysis is used as an archeological preservation method for ferrous historical artifacts, like ships and equipment, specifically because of this.
I love the way Ed works and explains at the same time it keeps program moving, unlike the shows where the hosts talk to the camera all the time
So true...
Yep, other channels flash up a graphic for 2 seconds then it’s back to their face again 😑 so much unnecessary rewinding….
Maybe you could have used some large plastic bins submerged in the negative space between the frame rails to displace the liquid and submerged the entire frame?
You beat me to it i was about to say exactly the same, some large drums to fill the gaps to raise the evaporust liquid then no need to mess about turning the chassis
Yup. That's what I was thinking (great minds think alike :) )
That's what I was going to say. I can't believe Edd didn't think of that.
See my comment above. Plastic bins would work, but theywould need ballast to sink.
I've seen some great success with a mollases and water solution. 6:1 or 9:1 ratio. Maybe something to think about in future projects where rust removal without mechanical process is needed.
Thank you for the encouragement and enthusiasm! This is much more involved; but however, much more fascinating. I have had a.little bit of experience with Evaporust, and so far it makes for creative and driven restoration projects! I had to subscribe after watching this video. Glad to have come across a great channel!👍
Hi Ed! Just a note to wish you a wonderful 2024 and to say how grateful I am to have found you again and reconnected. You’re knowledge, capabilities and passion to impart are so very refreshing!
Thanks, it’s been a tough year (for so many on and off YT). ‘24 will bring many more episodes for you all!
Your level of explanation into processes makes even a non car guy interested. Never have been a car guy but always a fan even as a kid from wheeler dealers.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoy the episodes, it’s fun exploring new stuff so happy to share!
I am a mechanic and bicycle mechanic I have used Evaporust since it came out just before 2000. What attracted me was the non-toxic label and that fact that it degraded to neutral ph. It was a total miracle to me how well it worked! I still recall how shocked I was when I pulled out that formerly rusted bike chain that was then clean as a whistle! Love that stuff!
Evapo-Rust is amazing! Can’t believe it took me so long to find it myself! The transformations are wondrous and very satisfying…
Would almond croissants and fig rolls still yield the same results - I was going to experiment but when I woke from my diabetic coma, they'd all vanished! @@eddchina
@@dancarter482 test inconclusive: you forgot the scotch eggs ;)
@@DT-dc4br The essential pork/life balance; yes, of course. Galileo meets Archimedes on a muggy night ... . ..
Edd stopped watching wheeler dealers the moment you left the show, brewer is a big head and loves himself, glad to watch you on u tube, no one exsplains repairs so well as you, and carried out lots of repairs on my car thanks to your tips
Your explanation of chelators and other processes are simply the best. I should know a thing or two about chelators - having used them medically my entire life. Also, adding strategic displacement volumes would help bring the level up.
I used a catheter before too.
Been using evaporust for a few years on small projects and love it. It works even quicker in an ultrasonic cleaner, and quicker again when heated as mentioned.
Thanks. Someone else mentioned ultrasonic cleaning with Evapo-Rust, looking forward to trying that out some time…
1935 litres of evaporust at retail prices being around six times greater than the cost of a brand new galvanised chassis
You may have me on that point!
🤪🤣🤣🤣🥸 good man Edd... keep going, ye might get it done quicker than the Binky lads😛
You can reuse it though, so it's an investment.
@@philtowle46832:32 would suggest maybe not so much, looks very ‘used’? I dunno maybe it doesn’t matter.
@eddchina He HAS got you on "that point".
Glad you're finally getting on with the Range Rover.. looking forward to more episodes! 👍
Happy New Year!
A problem with doing this is that every other steel item in the workshop will nag on your mind for de-rusting treatment.
That's what the big tanks are for ?
So glad you're back Edd! Absolutely loved the animation showing how the chemistry for the rust removal works. Thanks for the video and can't wait to see what's in store for next year!
Thanks. Galvanising is next for a start and we may well have a look at John’s cheeky new purchase too! Thanks for watching!
So glad I found you. I've been missing you since the Wheeler Dealer days. Thanks for the excellent content.
Hi Edd, have watched your programs for many years now. Just want to add my pennies worth. Live in Sweden now but grew up in Zambia (Northern Rhodesia) and cut my teeth on Land Rovers, from Mk1 to last model I had was 1998. Loathed Range Rover as a bush vehicle. Early 70’s they launched the model in Zambia. They fell apart and I mean literally. Aluminum panels cracked around door hinges. Windscreens were always cracking from body vibrations on bush roads not mention the fuel guzzling V8. The original Land Rover was a flexible, genius vehicle, as long as you avoided the 6 cylinder engine that ate Big end bearings. We always made 2 modifications to the LR though. There was a cross member under the gearbox that meant the interior had to be stripped out to remove the box. This we cut away, added 2 brackets on either side and bolted it in place. This allowed box removal from the underside. The other mod was very strong round bar/pipe protectors below and behind the front bumper. Saved your steering tie rods. Drove a few miles with excessive toe in after hitting tree stumps or small hard Ant hills in Elephant grass. Many thanks for your channel. Cheers
Well done for explaining the chemistry. So few of these rust removal videos make any attempt at this.
Took me a while to chase down exactly how the magic worked (the stop frame took even longer)!
@eddchina the stop motion was amazing. That is no small feat.
@@eddchina Did the stop frame material get turned into part of a buffet?
Your time was well spent. We all need to know this stuff and you did a wonderful illustration. @@eddchina
Welcome back Edd.
Might have been a good idea to place sealed drums in the gaps of the chassis to raise the level of the liquid to totally submerge it.
Displacement would save a lot of fluid (or time) but it was good to see the before and after so clearly!
@@eddchinathat's a good point
Might have been a good idea to get some paint on it in the first place!
Wonderful video Edd! Great to be able to watch you again on screen.
Wow, Ed you have been working on this project for as long as I have been working on my 1988 Porsche 951 ground up restoration project, and by the looks of your progress, you are not any closer to finishing this project than I am on mine. While you are spending thousands of dollars on evapo-rust, I am spending thousands of dollars on replacement parts for all worn out rubber and plastic parts not to mention the $20k on the engine rebuild and $5k on the transaxle rebuild. One things for sure, you and I have both proven that you can’t fully restore any vehicle without spending much more than the vehicle is worth to satisfy our own endeavors! Cheers, Ed, keep up the good work!
Really pleased to see you back Edd, you are certainly back on form. Looking forward to your next video which will hopefully not be too far away.
Cannot possibly thank you enough for the explanation of the different methods to remove rust! Definitely head and shoulders above the crowd of any other rust removal video I have seen, and I have seen all the big ones. I will definitely be using chelation even more than I was previously, thanks to you. Keep up the great work!
Thank you. Took a while to get this video over the line but I’m really chuffed with the results. Chelation is an amazing chemistry and just had to be shared! And the outside AND inside of our chassis are now completely rust free - galvanising next and that episode is nearly ready too. Thanks for watching…
It's been a long while since I last watched your show and now to find you here.......that made my day!
This is Project Farm level off the chart.... good effort Ed, Hope other brands trust in you and see more videos like this...
It's good stuff, but for the price and then the galvanising. Well you could have bought a new galvanised chassis.
@eddchina thank you for posting a new video. It's been a tough week and this little treat made it a lot easier to handle. Thanks for doing what you do. So many of us really appreciate the engineering, info and fun.
A few small pumps could have been used to spray the section of frame above the liquid level. I've done this, along with old towels, on much smaller parts to keep the steel wet with the Evaporust. Works great!
A local machine shop my friend works at repurposed an old stripped down sand blast cabinet that wasn't airtight anymore and was going to be scrapped. They use a pond pump that feeds an array of plant sprinklers they attached all around the inside so it spray-bathes the part as it rotates on a turntable. They can de-rust reasonably large parts with only about 2 gallons of fluid!
Or drop in some inert objects in the big space in the middle of the chassis that will displace some chemical and raise the level in the tank.
@@DEADB33FBrilliant idea!
@@DEADB33F Something like Mike Brewer?
Edd China is the reason I wrench on cars! Had it not been for wheeler dealers (Edd, not Mike), I wouldn’t have had the courage to do my own work. Now I’m actually a millwright/mechanic. Thanks for everything Edd!
Happy New Year Edd, Always nice to see you. Been following you for years from Osaka Japan. 🥳
Amazing process. One thought though, having had a spraying system, keeping the chassis damp all the time, would surely had needed less liquid. Great result and what is even more great, is to see you back in action. 2023 was a rough year, lost some dear ones and other set-backs occured, but hey, 2024 will be a blast of a year. Love from a Finn in Germany
Edd is back! I'm so happy. I hope this content continues! Welcome back Edd and well done! I've missed your content. I hope all is well and wishing you a very happy 2024.
I'm so glad to have found your channel. I really enjoyed watching your old show.
Great to see you back ed, hope you get over the last year 🎉and we need more paul and his sprinter!
Having just watched the whole series from start to finish more regular uploads 🙏
I use Evaporust too but it is crazy expensive here in Canada, but I read about a really good idea on some forum a year or so back to minimize the amount needed to submerge parts, Fill the pail with marbles and it greatly reduces the volume and allows easy addition and removal of parts, adding anything to take up space will work as others have suggested. Keep the videos coming Ed.
First of all I would like to say it is so good to have you back in Workshop Diaries I hope this means we will see regular episodes from now on you have been missed As regards the Range Rover Chassis it is like you worked a miracle as the episode proceeded I was just gobsmacked when it gets galvanized it will be fantastic I wish you a Happy New Year Ed and look forward to the next episodes best wishes Andy Allen.
Thanks Andy, hoping to post slightly more episodes next year for sure! The Evapo-Rust works brilliantly and chelation is wonderful chemistry.
Good news; the galvanising is already filmed (the chassis looks great btw) and that episode should be ready soon(ish)…
Happy New Year to you and yours too!
What a video to find your channel with, but you got another sub. Had to binge the RR series. I am super excited to see this progress.
Pure joy to watch , keep the content rolling edd 👍
Welcome back Edd. Missed these!!
I think it was a cool idea, thinking outside the box. Having a good time watching you again.
Great explanation of the method & product I have vintage motorcycles looking to use this product cheers Edd.
Wait, is this actually a new episode? 😆 Welcome back Edd, we've missed you terribly!
You wait all year for a new episode and two turn up only a few months apart! Thanks for watching.
Good to see you back Edd. Would've loved a Q&A, and also for the time it would've taken to weld on a patch to the hole and send it to the galvanisers I would've done that. Then you could've waited as long as you wanted. The chassis would never get rusty again.
Don’t worry, that is all for a future episode, already filmed most of it!! Glad you enjoyed the episode!
I've used this stuff extenively - although not THIS extensively - on my own Land Rover project and I can definitely vouch for it. Incredible stuff.
Great video Edd. Looking forward to seeing this coming on!
Excellent well worth the wait. Interesting process. Great to see the Range Rover back. Looking forward to the rebuild.
Strangely John has been acting very excitedly recently too! Galvanising next (chassis looks great) and a few more Range Rover episodes already on their way… thanks for watching!
Big thanks to you Mr . China from the central valley of California . Awesome videos you post .
anyone notice all the videos from Wheeler Dealers have been taken down...sounds like someone didnt have permission to upload them and make money from them! naughty naughty!
Great to see ya back Ed and team, keep it up with weekly fresh content upload and will rocket past 1mil in no time 😊
Weekly might be a push but I’ll do better than two episodes a year in 2024!
Soo happy to see Edd back. Looks like 2024 will be a great year!!!! Great work on the explaining of chelation also in true Edd China tradition. Really hope everyone involved in the channel are alright and doing good. Love from Sweden.
Hello Sweden! Glad you enjoyed the chelation explanation, took a while to get it all together but it was fun trying stop-frame animation for the first time! More episodes on their way in 2024!…
This was good viewing. Thanks for the effort!
Great content, Edd. Good to see you back.
Great to see you back! Hope everyone is in good health, looking forward to new episodes!
Thanks, been a complicated year but it’s great to finally get this episode out, new ones already in process…
Nice to see fresh content Edd please keep them Rover restoration videos coming 😁😁👍👍
Don’t worry, can’t stop the restoration at this point. Already filmed the galvanising process (the chassis looks great btw) so that episode should be ready soon(ish)…
Been using it for small stuff for years, Always very happy with it.
As the owner of a 1971 lightweight on a galvanised chassis loving the chassis work great to watch 😊
Welcome back, you have been missed, a Happy New Year to you and the workshop family from down under 👍👍👍
G’day! Sorry it took so long but I had to learn how to make croissants curly (like they were in the old days)! Happy New Year to you too!!
Even as a Brit and longtime US resident, I’ve followed you since WD was shown stateside. Glad to see you doing well and I have subscribed, so don’t disappoint me. Looking forward to following the RR rebuild.
Thank you, Range Rover rebuild will continue with the chassis being galvanised (it looks great btw), so that episode should be ready soon(ish)…
I’ve use this stuff on small car parts and old guns. Works great! Also works if you use a pump to just keep it wet. Good for surface where you don’t have to get inside too.
+1 for the science breakdown and explanation, very few channels do that.
And another excellent product from CRC. I use their products for cleaning carbs and MAF sensors.
Excellent video 👍
A new video?!? A belated Christmas present. Good to see you again Edd! Keep them coming!
Don’t say I never spoil you! Hope you had a great Christmas, wishing you a fab New Year! More Range Rover madness coming soon(ish)!
Hi Edd, Happy new year, so good to see you back
Haven't checked in lately but it is great to Edd his channel doing so well, he is just such a no nonsense guy with superb advice.
Watched Wheeler Dealers from day one, it was great, but that show has left the original platform so much.
Much rather invest my time in watching Edd 👍
Good to see you back at it here on youtube 😊! Hope 2024 will bring us lots of Edd China related content 😁. Merry christmas and happy new year
Thank you! We have a few episodes already started so there will be some more soon(ish). Happy Christmas and Merry New Year to you too!!
I’ve used it a lot and been really happy with the results, the only failure being a bunch of small fasteners that were, I believe to have been clear sink plated, they massed into a green gluey glob, that was extremely difficult to remove. As others have mentioned, a series of weighted containers to displace the liquid, so it was completely covered. I always get that distinct tide line if I have to flip a part around, like you did. Lastly, how can you fail to mention the absurd cost of the volume you used.
Well sponsorship or not, you did a bang up job explaining the process of chelation and rust removal chemically, I’m educated now thank you…and about the sponsorship( if any😉), we all need to make money to survive so…at least edd is doing it ethically! Bravo!
been watching all the stuff that you have done since watching wheeler dealers and I've now subscribed to your channel you make everything you do so easily and i just love how you explaining how it works i bought your book and it's great i just love what you are doing to the range rover the chassis is looking fantastic once you have finished it. it will look like new 🚙😀👍
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed the book and the show! More Rang Rover episodes on their way soon(ish)…
Absolutely fantastic to see you back Edd.
Thank you!
Haven't heard this guy in ages. Great stuff.
Love evaporust! Just used some a couple weeks ago to recon some old tools that belonged to my wife’s grandfather.
Well, at least I feel somewhat vindicated. Back when you were shaking around that fuel tank trying to de-rust it, I made the suggestion that filling the tank completely with evaporust is what you needed to do. You took the time to respond and basically told me purchasing that much evaporust wouldn't be practical.. .and now you went and did this.
…well, you laid down a challenge and planted a seed! It was hard work setting up but a fun process to follow, amazing chemistry and fabulous results from the Evapo-Rust (and I can still de-rust a tonne of other things too). You were certainly right about filling up the tank too!!
Great job, Edd. I wish you all the best in the New upcoming Year
Thank you, you too.
Hello Edd. Enjoying the videos a lot. Instructive AND interesting. Two thoughts.
One, I'd use a paintsprayer for that last bit - those trigger bottles don't have give you hand cramps!
Finally, Mebbe cut out the tea drinking, bed sleeping bits. We know how time passes.
They remind me of the crap you used to have to do on Wheeler Dealers to make it 'funny'...
Thanks again - great work.
Great Work Ed, don't worry about Displacement theory, easy to point out. In the future should anyone want to do this large a Job, how about using a long flexible Nuzzled Electric Sprayer to get the Oil right into the Chassis middle. As we used to with Waxoil.
Edd could have chosen the easier route but Edd decided to give us a neat chemistry lesson while we watch. Nice to see you Edd. Hopefully you'll get to 1 million subscribers very soon bud.
Thank you for noticing! It’s such beautiful chemistry too. Hoping the million subs won’t be too far away as I have some fun ideas on how to celebrate!
Great to see the Range Rover chassis again, after seeing that excellent diagram I can see where the last year or so has gone!
I spent most of the year experimenting with most parts of the production process too and learning how to make a stop frame animation, and doing bits and pieces on all of the other projects… so definitely could have done this video quicker the old way but progress is always worth striving for!
@@eddchina How much of a team do you have working on this channel? I didn't realise how much you were doing yourself. I'd be interested in some behind the scenes kind of info
Whilst I do love this content, it's about 90% montage. Feels very much made for TV, not the current pace of online content. I skipped sooooo much to get to the action.
when i saw this very informative video . Brilliant. i did not realize it was the very thing needed as i am about to start on restoration of my 1993 range rover !
Glad I could be of service, good luck with your own rusty Range Rover!
Brilliant to see you back Sir, so much detail, must be all consuming but its absolutely worth your effort.
💪
Very enjoyable! 😊
Thanks. It does seem to take me a while to do a 35 minute job! Glad you enjoyed it!
Glad to have you back Edd! Would have been good to have a pump firing the chemical through each of the frame ends which would have helped with agitating all the crud from the inside, also some big tubs to take up some of the volume of your swimming pool so that you didn't have to flip the frame. Was good to see the half and half grime line though!
The pumps would have been a great idea as you say, removing the crud during the process and the constant agitation would have probably sped things up a bit too.
We did consider a bit of displacement to save time but the before and after tide mark was very interesting to see (and better explained the process) so I settled on the side of more time and hassle!!
Thanks for watching…
Beautifully cleaned.
If this was an infomercial for Evaporust, then you’d have sold us all! This was definitely the coolest use of this stuff I’ve ever seen!
So good to see you back with new content again. You have been missed.
Far too busy procrastinating!! I’ll get a few more videos up in the coming months…
Oil might keep the galvanizing from sticking. I used to work for a metal fab shop that had lots of parts galvanized and if we used soap stone or grease pencil on the metal, the galvanizing wouldn't stick and the plating company would charge extra to remove it.
Next episode, 'Dunking Our Rusty 1986 Range Rover Chassis in 1935 Litres of brake cleaner'.
first they dip the metal in the acid, so any contaminations like oil etc should be ok
@@ImhotepBE Acid doesn't dissolve oil. If they hot-dip galvanize, it might not be a problem. I'd give it a steam clean or detergent pressure wash before galvanizing if it were my project.
@@87mini im not talking about a heavy amount of oil, but you're 👍 if there is too much oil/contamination on the surface it's best to clean it off properly . Hot galvanising is good, but I have seen very bad ones when the surface wasn't cleaned properly.
Have a good day 👍
i restored my maytag washing machine motor and man this stuff just ate away the heavy rust like it was nothing, so freaking amazing
Absolutely brilliant, I really enjoyed watching, just great to see Edd China again.
A great episode! I loved the sight gag with the hidden hose feeding the plastic bottle.
I cracked up at edd trying to boost his subscriber count...🤣
@@stuartd9741 More likely Ed is giving his followers a laugh.
Thank you. It was fun adding all of the nonsense!!
Thank Edd & Team for a very interesting video upload to your channel. Hope to see some more videos on the now not rusty Range Rover. I hope you get some primer paint on the chassis ASAP Happy Christmas & New year Edd Regards TONY
Thanks Tony, the next stage on the chassis is to galvanise it and we managed to squeeze in the filming of that just before Christmas. I’ve got to say the galvanising is a great process too (and the chassis is protected for 50+ years too). Watch this space…
Merry Christmas to you too!!
@@eddchina Thank you Edd for taking the time to reply to me. I look forward to see the next instalment on the Galvanising of the Range Rover chassis. I even going to recommend that of my teaching team at work has a look at the de-rusting video. Thanks Edd.
Happy to see you here on TH-cam. We missed you!
Hi Edd. I was wondering where u went after Wheelers Dealers. Missed u so much on that show. It's great to see you again. 👍👍
Pool for sale, only used once, slightly brown, excellent for summer, check ph levels when filled 😂👍🏻
Great video Edd, loved the lengthy science animation at the start using left over buffet food 😂. Looking forward to seeing more of this in the new year.
Wishing you all the best! Happy 2024!🎉🥳✊🏻🍻☕️
Pool should not be used if you’re swimming is a bit rusty!
Thanks. Although you won’t be seeing any more of the buffet food in 2024 as it was already touch and go with the use by dates!
Wishing you and yours a Fantastic New Year too!!
Edd! You were the reason we've loved the original Wheeler Dealers! This project was epic! We too have just discovered Evaporust and are currently using it to restore an antique copy press. Do you have a video on powder coating vs. Spray paint (rustoleum)? Loving your content in Utah!
Thanks. Evapo-Rust is indeed brilliant stuff, good luck with the press. Next process for the chassis is galvanising and then powder coating (video being edited as we speak)! Would definitely be good to compare wet and dry paint sometime too…
Hello Utah! Thanks for watching!
@@eddchina Yay! We'll be watching! 😊
Not all the Rustoleum paints are the same... I used one to paint an aux 5g fuel tank for my Harley for long distance rides and found out the first time I filled up that that particular product was not fuel-resistant... It was one of the hammer finish oil based paints... It looked good, but only until the first bit of gas got on it when I filled it up the first time...
I had a powder coated winch bumper on a Jeep XJ that I used to own and determined that powdercoating is not necessarily that great either... When you get a rock chip, it lets water get under the powercoat and eventually it forms a bubble of rust and then the next thing you know, you have a spot flaking off that is a couple of inches in diameter...
Conclusion? Nothing is perfect... Each has its advantages and disadvantages...
@@seanseoltoir oh, wow! Good info! I'll have my hubby read this. Thanks so much!
I definitely swear by Evaporust. You can also use cheap fish tank pumps to splash treat parts as long as you have a pan below to collect the liquid and continue pumping. I had a '71 Cadillac Coupe DeVille a few years ago. We cleaned up the intake manifold still on the engine splashing the product like this for a few days. Absolutely amazing result.
