 Surface rust is a great primer for epoxies.My rotor is out in the rain rusting on purpose.
 If your using new steel lightly sand it to remove the protective coating so it can rust.
 Seems crazy but true.

 Are your mags protected by nickel now?

   well a very interesting reply vawtman.
  at one time my was working in the oil refinery's.
  the company i worked for built oil storage tanks. and pipe lines
  but one thing puzzled me when a tank was finished it was left for about
 three months before it was painted.
  of course in that time it was covered in surface rust  .
  to me that was very bad and couldest understand why it wasent painted sooner  

   and now after all this time i understand why .
  a twenty five year mystery solved ha-ha.
   so now i can leave bare metal outside if i am going to paint it soon.

    after wire brushing it of course .
  a good tip vawtman. i also found old brake fluid is great for cleaning a old paint
   brush that had gone hard.  
   were never to old to learn new tricks.
its a ill wind that dos no good
