[QUOTE="kawman, post: 25519, member: 917"] On my bike resto,s I have been using molasses for years to remove rust.. The electric method works but takes some of the parent metal with it.. To use molasses... mix molasses say 1 ltr to three or 5 liters of water.. put in plastic drum down the back for a few weeks to let it ferment and then drop in your rusty parts.. they will come out in a few days completely free of rust...keep the mix to use later on.. Can do car panels ect as well.. just remove anything not made of steel as it will destroy it.. I use a hole dug in the ground lined with plastic for larger items.. fill it up and drop the panel in.. MUST LET IT FERMENT TO MAKE THE ACID THAT DOES THE WORK>> ;) [/QUOTE]
