Makita Grinder with a 3" Wire Brush and an Elecrtic Drill with an extension and a 1 1/2 " wire Brush on the End to get into the tight spaces......Dirty tedious work but a small section at a time and move on to the next......Rattle Can Rustolium Satin Finish.........The Semi-Gloss black is a little bit Too shiney, but the Satin comes out just right...This is about as "Mickey Mouse" as it gets, but these tools ans dedication get the job done.......I ordered all the Fuel and Brake lines from "The Right Stuff" and it's amazing how close they make their product.....open the Box and just tighten the fitting's........
