Oh and here’s an example of the flapper discs I’m talking about (anywhere from 60-100 grit is probably fine):

You’ll also need this backing piece to attach the sanding pads too. It seems like a lot but trust me, it will save you so much precious time and energy that you need when you are in school:

Sure! I am no expert, but I like my results. Here is what I did.

  1. I went to amazon and bought:
  2. I lowered the saw blade.

  3. I spread Mineral spirits with the steel wool in small circles with a bit of elbow grease.

  4. I scrubbed for a moment with the wire brush where there were bad rust spots, but then I thought "This is going to take for ever!"

  5. I sanded it with my orbital sander and my highest grade sand paper pad. This created a thin slurry of rust and mineral oil.

  6. I went back to the wire brush to scrub the spots the sander couldn't reach.

  7. I went in the house with my slurry-covered fingers in the air opening doors with my elbows and grabbed an undershirt from the laundry to wipe down the saw.

  8. I wiped down the saw.

  9. I did one more pass with mineral oil and steels wool.

  10. I sprayed it with the protection spray.

  11. I marveled at/ took pictures of my saw.

  12. I scanned my garage for other small tools I could quickly sand and spray.

    The whole evolution took less than 20 minutes.
