Chassis Rust-Removal
Today I applied Evaporust Gel to the chassis. That should be much gentler than Naval jelly and hopefully not etch away anything that's not rust.

Making progress...but not there yet. It may take several applications of Evaporust Gel (it did on my 112 chassis).
Tranformer Rust Removal
I did use Naval jelly on the transformers since they'll be painted. Naval jelly does work faster and has a consistency that is a bit easier to work with.

These also need just a bit more to be rust free. Then I can sand them and repaint.
