I keep coming back to this not because I need it but because I just want to see how clean and rust free I can get that frame. I love cleaning frames.

I had a Koga Miyata, not as nice as this one, but from the same era that I took on a tour from Finland to Spain. That was a nice bike and a heck of a fun ride.

Well I’ve only had frames with light or surface rust which has been easy to remove with evaporust. I use the gel on frames, has worked as well as the liquid for my applications.
