Coast to Coast
I acquired a nice, but used Delta drill press today off CL. It's seen better days, in the cosmetics department, but is mechanically perfect. I'm remodeling my garage/shop area over the winter, and everything will be new and pristine. The drill press has flash rust on it, on almost all the external surfaces. I was able to start cleaning it up with a scotchbrite pad and some WD40. When I get the entire thing cleaned up, i'm considering hitting most of the parts with black appliance epoxy paint. (ie. everything that doesn't have mesh with something, like the geared movements)
I don't want to have to clean this thing every year just from it sitting in a humid texas garage. Any reason this would be a bad idea?
