Best way to clean up/fix these windows?
As you can see both windows are coated with many layers on paint, under that there is a lot of rust. How would I be best removing all the paint/sealant and cleaning them up? I don't know what you would call the latch mechanism on the inside of the windows but hopefully if i can clean off all the paint it'll work again. The handles for the windows are still connected to the parts inside but hardly move because of all the paint and rust. Might be wishful thinking.. If not, what sort of latch/mechanism should I replace it with? This is just a temporary fix for aesthetics until I eventually replace the windows completely.
