I was given a Foley planer/moulder for free in June. I beleive it was left outside for a while so it is fairly rusty. I read that the best way to clean the rust off the cast iron is to either use a wire cup brush or a scotchbrite pad. But the paint has peeled off the extention wings as well. They are just a piece of steel bent to shape. What should I do to clean the rust off of those, then should I paint them again, if yes then what with? Also are there any important electrical parts that should not be overlooked? This machine needs a complete overhaul so any help is appreciated.
