I recently bought some mild steel to start small project at home from a local stockist and I don,t know if this is normal but some of it has slight rust, I am wondering if they sold me the poor stuff or this is standard?
Don't worry unless it's actually pitted
When steel leaves the depot it can be fine on the flatbed for a couple of hours on a damp day and it can show rust when it arrives at your drop
Just keep an eye on stockholders sending out junk when they don't truly value your order or future orders. It's more likely they pull stunts
Thanks for the advice, decided to use galvonisors now so will not be an issue. Its hard to know what is acceptable but next time I will ask for the best qaulity.
