ok so the screws on my 98c are a bit rusty. bought it used not in great
cuometic shape. anyway few years ago i bought that stuff on the tv Zap.
noe if i use it on the bolts ( it uses phosphoric acid to eat away rust
i think) will it damage the paint on the screws? i really dont care
about the the paint will it screw up the (hmmm cant think of the word)
little grooves that go into the other litttle groove thingies ( oh ya
sportting the 3rd grade vocab here) thing the screw will be alright?

You are asking if you use a rust remover if it will damage the threads on the screws?
I dont think it will damamge the threads, and even if it does yu can get new ones from tippy. |

Go the the hardware store and by new ones, they are just screws. Its not
like Tippmann is the only one to have screws that exact size. |

If they are rusty clean off the rust and paint them with Rustolium, or buy new SS or regular screws. |

Try it, they're screw. Tippmann can send you new ones or you can go buy Stainless Steel ones.
