ok, about a week ago i changed out my steering rack cuz the old one was leaking like a mofo. i was going thru a quart a week! i got it all done and aligned and everything. then i went to the auto store and got some degreaser cuz since the thing has been bad for about 2 months i had considerable sludge built up around where the rack is. i sprayed that stuff all in there nice 'n good and it was POWERFUL!!! it ripped thru a good 1/2 inch of thick road grime and sludge like it was nothing! only problem is, it also stripped off the black coating on the rack. is that thing gonna rust on me? do i need to get some paint and repaint it really quick or should i be good?

Re: uh... oops!
it's called purple power. it cost like 6 bucks for a big ol' spray bottle of the stuff. i'm used to all the labels saying "ultra concentrated" and "super citrus action" and crap like that. this one said "industrial strength" and on the back it said to wear gloves so i figured i'd give it a shot. i never thought it was like that! i seriously left the stuff on for like 3 minutes and hosed it off. everything is bone dry under there now. it even took the oil stain around my filler tube out!2000 3.8L Camaro A4 Pewter Y87<br />K&N Filter, SLP Ram Air kit, Eibach Pro Kit, Flowmaster 80 series, Silverstars, NGK plugs and MSD Super Conductor Wires, Electric Water PumpComment

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
