GJUK Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 Has anyone used this before? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-Kg-Oxalic-Acid- ... 4ce6a280f1 Are there any other better things I can buy for dipping lumps of metal in to remove rust which I can't get to with my angle grinder/wire brush? Thanks Jon

AvantSE Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 Kurust is OK for light surface rusting, to sort of deactivate it. I have some Clarke stuff from Machine Mart which is for dipping parts in - can't remember what it's called but it's some sort of acid.
stephens_xpack Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 The oxalic acid is very good and not to expensive. Try a small part before you go mad to make sure it's what you are after but definitely worth a go.
Fiesta Steve Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 What about a bucket of water and a car battery ??
sarkie83 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Posted May 25, 2010 What about a bucket of water and a car battery ?? exactly - cheap and VERY effective!!
RossMK2 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Posted May 25, 2010 What about a bucket of water and a car battery ?? never heard of that what do you do?
flyingbanana Posted May 25, 2010 Report Posted May 25, 2010 What about a bucket of water and a car battery ?? never heard of that what do you do? you put metal rods in so they dont touch the item you are cleaning then wire them up to the neg of the charger....negative to the rods postive goes on to your item.add some soda crystals into water.put power on and wait after 12hrs
