that is the question....

to paint the 'internals' in the lower 'chamber' of an old well hand pump to keep the stuff at the end of the rod from rusting...

Have a new 'cup leather' soaking so no hurry...

.. and well's only 10 foot deep..........

Yes, I would have painted in also, just for added protection
