zoop seal can be used on items that aren't affected by too much heat. You can order it from eastwood >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Don't know how you're getting rust on the A/C condensor as it is aluminum, and I'm pretty sure the brake lines are SS so shouldn't be a problem there either?

its like surface rust, it comes right off...im talking about the brake lines that are coming out of the...umm....brake booster or whatever it is, they are bent tubes that go into the braided SS hoses.,..they get shitty
