You pretty much just need it to be an electrolyte solution of some sort, lots ofthings will work.There's a very good writeup online somewhere that recommended using lye. The advantagethere was that it also ate off old paint... however, that stuff is quitedangerous. Another neat feature is that with creative placement of the sacrificial anode,you can remove rust from inside things, where other methods are nearly useless.ToolsRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Mon, 20 Feb 2012 17:38:28 -0800 (PST)
