    Anti-Freeze/Rust on Paint

    The #7 doesn't seem to be helping much. I've done it three times now just on the trunk lid and not sure I'm noticing any difference. What would be next?

    Anti-Freeze/Rust on Paint

    Wasn't sure what forum to post this in so I'm starting here. I have a '78 Triumph that hasn't seen the rode in almost 30 years. It's original single stage white paint.
