rust! what do you do?
58 delray:
as above as they stabilize the rust and stop it getting worse.
the other option is to find someone with a detail sand blaster and stick it down the seat tube then use kurust or jenolite, then when its dry spray zinc down the tube.
my other hobby is 1950s cars so i come across a lot of rust! you need to get rid of it or/and treat it or it is like a cancer and just spreads.

Can't I know its there >:(
I'm not as shocked and annoyed as I was last night, the amount of dust that came out of it I'm thinking rust out for sures, bound to have affected the structural integrity.
Maybe OTTT on a bike that might never get ridden but thats not the point and I reckon you'd always like to have the option.
Cheers for the advice lads, have to get it sorted now :)

I use bottled lemon juice on rust ;)

Waxoyl or Hammerite are good rust removers, I restored a few lambretta scooters in my youth and you need to prevent further rust or your frame will rot away completely,sound like its in a bitch of a place to treat though,I would be very tempted to get it treated proffessionally mate. Good Luck!!
