I cant think of any reason not to use a wire wheel on the tin except this,if you dont take all the paint off it wont look good and any paint that is still on after the wire brush will curl at the edges and mess up your paint job.You have to watch using sand paper,it could leave scratches if you use coarse stuff.It wouldn't hurt any thing to paint the front and back of your motor now,but it has to be clean,then wiped down with whatever stuff it says to use with the paint.If I have a clean surface to work with,for that I would use a rattle can.You will see if you need it to be cleaner then if it bleeds grease through the rattle can job.Think clean.I remember you said it would be a working tractor and would not be putting automotive paint on it.It takes a lot of work to paint something and make it look good.Whats up with the motor?I think I would rather get it running first,but keep cleaning stuff as I put it together.After it runs paint it.
