I'm working on bringing back a Party Zone that has a lot of rust issues. Not many metal parts that are not affected. I have only worked on EM's up to this point, this is my first SS machine, so bear with me.

When I removed the power supply box, the bottom half had quite a bit of rust. This will be soaked in Evaporust and re-painted, but is there anything that I need to do to the rust that is on the cabinet? How do I get this off? Do I need to do anything to the paint to neutralize it?

For the power supply portion, can this be tested for correct operation before I re-mount it in the cabinet?

Thanks in advance

Mank - I will check for the thermistor, thanks.

Langless28 - Thanks for the tip on the primer, I had never heard of that. I did order new leg bolt brackets, at a couple bucks each for new ones, It's worth it. The legs I will try to salvage.

For the rust on the cabinet, it's just over wood, would brushing it off be enough?
