Did someone leave the backdoor open at the GT factory?
It's an 1990 Image Cycles Pro-Am Innovator DX, built by a British bloke called Keith Rylance.
I think he passed away not too long ago.

Unfortunately our selection of rust converters are pretty limited here, I just got whatever was on the shelf. I never thought about reaction with clear coats, I'll have to keep that in mind. Really liked how well CorrosionX coated compared to fluid film. Also does well in tests I've seen. Which version do you use?I tend to use Jenolite, but only because my Dad used that when I was a kid (on old cars mainly) there are other rust converters out there and Jenolite can stain existing clear coat if you are not careful.... +1 for CorrosionX too.
rust converter I've used is brushed on, I can't recommend a brand as we are very limited here. For inner protection I'd really recommend CorrosionX, that is a spray.Like I said I have Ranex, they have some videos on the joeptjoep.
When I get to it I'll use it on a small bit of frame, might also have a 1" XT headset to get it presentable.
Fork can be sanded and sprayed black easy enough.
@Imlach This stuff? I assume that's only for the innards.
It was a blue and grey can IIRC... I have a can of Supatrol at the moment.Unfortunately our selection of rust converters are pretty limited here, I just got whatever was on the shelf.

It's fine if you follow the instructions
