I got my pan now, body has been separated. How do i give the sucker a clean without rustin' it further. its got grease and oil here and there, and some goo stuff i wanna get rid off.
bare body needs a wash too. or maybe i will just clean that with a brush. hmm.
Should u just use a rag to rub off wateva greasy crap i got and dust/brush off any other girl rather than saturate in water? (shes rusty enough as it is)

and a nice dish washing scrubbing brush and get all the muck off.
then hit it with the angle grinder and a wire brush wheel.

Use water Chris, its going to get wet when you take it outside, and on the beach, you will need to wash it often...
When clean, use penetrol and lanolin and fisholene, so many products to kee rust at bay...
how many times do you think both the top and lower side of the pan has been wet in the last 40 odd years?
blast that sucker! you can always dry it afterwards with an industrial size box of tissues😀
haha, box of tissues, haha
would penetrol and lanolin and fisholene protect bare metal (say if i were to use a wire brush wheel) and get rid of the paint and rust, and leave the holes clean of rust and just bare metal (ready for weldin') and the rest in bare metal (from removing the paint).
Or should u do a bit of wirebrushin' for a day, then put a bit of primer over the bare metal, and girnd or sand it bare the next time i work in that bit?
Just getting prepared. All ur comments are great and well appreciated.
Lol, industrial sized tissues, where the heck do u get them from?

Penetrol will protect it as will weld through primer
