Stainless

Sorry. I meant to be asking bista about the type of welding work.

But to answer your question, TrueBlue, I''ve never used it on stainless, but I used naval jelly on steel engine parts and wrought iron (steel) fencing many years ago and it worked great, I thought. It went far in removing paint, usually requiring a rinse and second application, as I recall. And it left a clean, silver-grey, exposed metal surface on areas that had no paint.

I imagine it should work on any steel, especially any rusting weld joints. But I never hear or read about it in sailing so I wonder if a better product has been developed.

In any case I would certainly defer to Jack.

Chas.
