  1. My cable hangars are welded to my steel frame on my Fuji Newest. The
    one
    near the seat tube (on the top tube) was rusted. I used my dremel to
    remove
    rust which was on the inside portion of the hangar, as well as at the
    junction (weld) of the hangar/top tube. What is the best way to deal
    with
    minor repaint?

    This should probably be added to the FAQ :

    If there's not much to touch up, try nail polish, if you can find any
    that matches the color reasonably well.

    You can also get automotive touch-up paint in a semi-useful range of
    colors at auto parts stores. There might be a shade that would be a
    fair match for your frame.
