Torklift tie down maintenance
My 6 year old Torklift tie downs are in sad shape. The paint (or probably actually it is powder coat) is falling off so that there is now a lot of exposed and rusting metal. So I need to paint them...

Are you talking about the binders? You can only get into to many of the crooks and crannies without taking them apart. Wire brush and any can of paint off the shelf will work. None of it's going to last long, just the nature of life. Grinding with a flapper disc would be the best; you'd be hard pressed and bored to grind the strength out of them.
Painting over rust makes the rust look good, but it's still there. Rust is ugly perhaps, but as you pointed out, it's everywhere on the truck, and things still work. Touch up is ok, but there is a time when one is spending valuable time and money on things that have served their purpose.
