Seat tube dilemma

(1/2) > >>

CustardLips:
Anyone got any tips on cleaning out a seat tube ?
There's some rust down there and I just can't get me mitts on it !  :(

Jaymz:
I cut up an old wooden wire brush. Tapped a piece of threaded bar into the wood wacked it down the hole and stuck a battery drill on the end!!!

animal:
Caustic soda is the way 2 go  :daumenhoch:

oldschoolace:
Citric acid bath or bung up the probable weep hole into the bb and fill the tube with a stronger citric acid solution :daumenhoch:

Munnyella:
large bottle brush from wilko's, cut off loop, put in drill, dip brush is diesel, insert in tube, spinny spinny, re-dip and repeat a few times.

Jobs a good un.
