I have been doing this molasses thing for the past couple of years and it works great, when i remove items from the molasses, i power wash them and then immediately spray them with por15 metal ready(while the parts are still wet with water) and this stops any rust from forming, so the parts can...

Thanks, I started setting them to 3/16, but wanted to know for sure before i start grinding or welding any of the gaps.

Does anyone know where i can get some side moulding trim clips from for my 67 dart gt.

Hi, can anyone tell me what size the panel gaps should be on my 67 dodge dart? as i'm going to try and set the gaps before i start bodywork, should the, rocker to door, door to quarter, fender to cowl, fender to hood, etc.. all be the same gap?

I soaked engine mounts and a few other parts with rubber and it had no effect on them. The only thing it did do is make the rubber shiny and look like new, although i think that was probably the por15 that made it shine

Thanks, that saved me from having to explain more. Also when i remove parts from the molasses i pressure wash them straight away to remove all the slime and loose rust and then straight after this (while the parts are still wet) i spray them with por 15 prep and ready and then leave to dry. As...

You don't need electric with molasses. Molasses WILL NOT eat the metal, only the rust. Here is the negative (if your in a hurry) it takes about 2 weeks to remove the rust, this has not been a problem for me, as i have just been leaving the parts to soak while working on other stuff. I have...

Hi, I filled a rubbish bin with 100 liters and used a 9 to 1 mix, 90L of water and 10L of molasses. You could add more molasses if you wanted but it worked great at that mix, i am still de rusting parts in it now after more than 12 months.

Looks good,but be careful with electrolysis as i beleive it can weaken the metal and cause it to crack/fracture later on. Heres a picture of one of my drums that i soaked in molasses and water, i highly recommend it, as it only removes the rust and won't touch the metal.

Well done, great job:thumblef:

Anyone know??

Hi, Were can i get some new seals for my gearbox, its a 67 dart gt 3 speed manual and its leaking at all 3 of the gear linkages

Thanks, I didn't know about real steel. I will give them a call tomorrow and see if they have one
