...yep, a wire wheel is all I have ever used...remember that your steel doesn't have to be shiny bright as long as there is no heavy rust scale on it...for the best paint job on that new steel...after cleaning well, use an acid etch primer before painting to insure a good finish...the etching primer is available in rattle cans from your local auto paint supply house...
