28 Sept 2016 - Front bumper

I have been working on the front bumper mounting brackets and hardare since the 26th.  So far I have the four brackets painted and drying.  The mounting hardware is also painted and drying/curing.  I also attempted to deal with the rust on the inside of the bumper and the rust on the chrome hardware.  I wasn't sure if the Evapo-Rust would damage the chrome mounting hardware but I thought, what the hell, might as well see what it does.  So I soaked the chrome hardware for about 4 hours and the rust is almost completely gone and the chrome looks like its intact!?!?

I left the idler arm mounting hardware on the bench and kinda forgot about it.  It rusted and is now soaking in Evapo-Rust...
