Subject:Dealing With Seam Rust: Solutions?
From:Marshall Ruskin
Date:Sun, 14 Mar 1999 00:41:43 -0600

Hi Everybody:

Yes, my Westy is also showing very light seam rust, which I would like to
deal with.

Now, I would like to discuss possible short and long-term solutions.

1: Are there any easy short term solutions? I am wondering if there is a
product that will, at least temporarily, "wipe" the surface rust off? (This
may be pure fantasy, but, a listee may have a solution)

2: For the long term solution, what are the reasonable options?
Is there anything one can do to stop the rust from progressing? If you have
rust, is it terminal?

BTW: We just returned from Grand Forks ND, and the Westy performed
beautifully! Any listees in Grand Forks for my next visit?

BTW, Pt.2:
My Westy gets admiring glances and comments from all sorts of people, and I
had the good fortune to turn a Westy-Owner-Wanna-be to our list for advice
on buying one.

In my opinion, FWIT, (and does it really matter?), people think Westies are
cool!
