rust on Radial ARm Saw base
 

Todd....Use a coarse wire wheel on your hand grinder....or wire brush....or scraper....then smooth it with medium grit cloth-back 'sandpaper'. Use some rust remover if you wish, or just wire brush with detergent and water.....rinse well, dry it in the sun (you don't want any trapped water in the joints) then primer paint (spray or brush) then oil or lacquer finish, gloss or semi-gloss, spray or brush. It doesn't need to look perfect.....you just want to stop the rusting. Use lacquer spray if you want fast-dry, no-run. I'd suggest pink.....your buddies would have a hoot. .....pmh
