My only comment, from rather a lot of experience of rust in cars and on boats.... get rid of it! If it is heavily crusted and access for a grinder is impossible, a cheaper option for the long term could well be to get the bottom of the lockers grit blasted or needle gunned. -- Neil Arlidge - NB Earnest - Shannon Reg 7410 Read about the TNC Irish travels at: http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk/Tour_07/index.html Defend the waterways: http://www.saveourwaterways.org.uk/
