Hi all.

Upon inspecting the long brake line from front to back on my '81,
there is actually only a few spots of surface rust.

I know it will need replacing at some point, but seems fine for now.
i.e. most of the green paint is ok and I don't feel/see any pitting.
So.....

If I paint these spots (*light* sanding prep) with a rust inhibitor
paint, will that actually slow down the rust?

Anyone done this?

Kind of hard to get at the portion over the gas tank, but I'm pretty
sure I can get in there with a small paint brush.

Neil.
