For a long time I've wondered if rust remover could be used to remove rust from vintage metal trains without killing the paint, etc.. Well, now I know.
Just today I decided to test a well known brand on this Marx tender. It had a very good paint job with a couple small areas of rust. I soaked the entire tender for about 5 hours and now it looks like it went through a nuclear war.
Evidently it's not the way to clean Marx vintage tenders
Well, at least I'll never use it again for this application.
