Default Old garage needs a clean

Davide wrote:

Hi,

I have bought a new car and have the possibility of storing it in a garage
which has not been opened in years.
I have given it a clean but all the parts of the sliding garage door are
rusty.



Do you mean all sliding parts, or all the door?
If the former, WD40 fine emery and a liberal application of a good
grease. If the latter, wire brush, then one of those phosphoric acid
things that turn iron oxide into iron phosphate, fllowed by car body
filler to make good any surface irregularities, then a spray coat of
filler primer, all being rubbed down between, then some car spray paint
will produce an immaculate result.


Does anyone have any suggestions for a product which can reduce or stop the
rusting.
Also does anyone know how much new sliding garage doors cost nowdays.
