I used to be able to get the Naval Jelly at Canadian Tire,
some have it, some don't, and be ready for a quick come-
back when the sales staff looks at you and begins to grin
- maybe disapprovingly :-)  In addition to the navel jelly
Cdn Tire has "rust converter" stuff that I have used with
sucess (I hope). read & follow the instructions.  Malcolm
