Swede, In order: 1. You can use whatever works on the rust. Wire brush works okay on the cast housings. Heavier rust may require a wire wheel on a die grinder or portable drill. On the sheet metal it's okay for the first layer but then go to a sander gradually increasing the number of the grit. Finish sanding should be at least 200-250 grit. 2.Rust-o-leum can be used as a primer. Most important is that it not interfere adversely with the finish coat of paint you plan on using. Sometimes the dryer chemicals in primers/paint are not compatible with finish paint products. 3.Never used a sponge for tractor painting. I prefer spraying to get it into all the nooks and crannys. 4.Remember it is better to spend more time in the prep phase that it is the finish phase. The better you have the metal preped/primed, the better your finished product will look. FB
