Good discussion on sealers, I’m definitely learning something new.

I’ve searched all over, and it looks like the only way to buy the 24163 activator is in the spray can.

As far as cleaning the surfaces, I’ve gone over them with brake cleaner and a rag. They are pretty clean, but there is some corrosion around the bearings. I imagine I shouldn’t use any abrasive on these surfaces. Anything else I should be doing?

Thanks,
