USED IN THIS VIDEO (I might get kickback if you buy something with the below links, but no pressure; this is just what I used.)

@eastwoodco's rust encapsulator worked great for painting over the rust: https://amzn.to/3wLbbD9

Their paint prep did a good job cleaning as well: https://amzn.to/3T739hf

These plastic razor blades helped greatly with scraping off the old tape residue: https://amzn.to/3cgaxq2

And can't beat GooGone for adhesive removal: https://amzn.to/3CpDB97
