I have recently removed some old brittle and broken gutter trim to find a bit of surface rust on the top edge of the gutter.
I was planning to get some mini gutter trim to replace (which I am told fits and is cheaper) but wanted to treat the rust with some sort of rust treatment product that is not coloured, before sticking the new trim on. I appreciate that some products will turn the rust black and this is not really a problem as the affected area should easily be covered by the trim.

My question is - does anyone know of a suitable product for this job? I was thinking of kurust but wondered if anyone knew of something better.

Thanks

3) Though my coating of choice is Dinitrol, which I am told is superior to Waxoyl - http://www.dinitrol.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Top Tip 1: Don't spend longer faffing with your van or fixing it than you do using it. (still working on this one myself)
Top Tip 2: Keep it original and maintain it well. Regular oil,filters,fluids,belts and services.
Top Tip 3: Deal with the rust when you find it.
