Just a little heat and all screws where going smootly .
Of course galvanizing is a really good way to prevent the car to get rusty. Just repair all rust and than to the zinc bath. And the car will for sure not get rusty again so soon . :wink:

The torch flame is not so good if you plan to re-use these parts (due to thermal changes).
The process is little different - I use soda (bicarbonate - baking soda) and car battery recharger device :-) Just connect (-) to your detail, (+) to some piece of iron and dial the recharger to the ~2A. Both details (your and iron piece) must be soaked in the soda solution for ~4-5 hours (or more) You will notice bubbles :-) When you remove your detail from the solution, rinse with water and clean the surface - all restings will fall easily.

This process doesn't need any specific control or prerequisites. Just coat the clean iron with primer - will rust fast (just because is very very clean from rust, paint and deposits).
