I'm in Albany NY so shipping is pretty much overnight from NJ for me :-)

I have a stif wire brush for cleaning pistol barrels that I think I'm going
to use to remove the larger pieces of rust. My father worked with a startup
company that has a product that converts Iron Oxide to Iron Phosphate or
something like that. It stops rust cold, and he said that it is good up to
2800F. I'm gonna soak the rotors in that tomorow afternoon to seal the
vanes. He tells me this stuff is used as part of a Mil Spec. before the base
painting of new Naval ships. I just spoke to the inventor/distributor of
this product and he says that it will work very well inside the brakes, and
can be reapplied at anytime. I am gonna use some on the underside of my car
in a spraybottle to stop the 2-3 little patches of rust I have on the
underbody.

If anyone might want some of this stuff I can see about getting a few
gallons shipped to me, I did some chemical formulation work for this guy 2
weeks ago, so he kinda owes me a favor.
