I was thinking about getting a thick enough pvc pipe for the receiver and doing the balistol mix but I didn't think the corrosion was from the tulammo I was shooting since its not corrosive . Now I'm just worried about getting off the rust that's showed up. It's nothing major, just light surface rust but it's in spots that aren't easy to get to like gas tube
OO steel wool will make quick work of surface rust without scratching or removing bluing (once you degrease the parts you wish to buff). Don't be afraid to use several pads- they are cheap enough and get "dull" fairly quickly. I would field strip and pack rags into any crevices where you don't want wool to accumulate. Afterwards, I wipe down with brake cleaner to remove the remaining dust and grease- avoid getting this on the wood bits though, as it will remove the finish. Use compressed air if any wool falls into the weapon.
For an AK, I use wheel brearing grease on the "loose" parts like the bolt lugs, carrier rails, and hammer face. A few drops of gun oil on the "tight" parts like the trigger\hamer hinge pins and firing pin channel.
Very important! Do not leave any oil or grease in the chamber or barrel! This may result in excessive pressure and Kaboom!
I finish up with a liberal coat of spray on silicone- available at any auto parts store. Won't hurt the wood or plastic bits, so feel free to be generous with it- wipe off excess now or , as I do, leave it slimy until the next range session.
But the root cause of your rust problem is more likely a humid storage environment than corrosive ammo- get a nice tactical softcase to protect the gun and keep your mags organized too!
Good luck, the Wasrs are nice AKs which don't get enough respect- much better guns than the RAS47 or PSA!
