rust prevention

(1/2) > >>

speedibee:
I have a vat to strip rust from tools etc ,it's sulfuric acid ,and I run current trough the objects . is there any way of stopping rust forming within minutes of removing things from the acid ?

vtsteam:
Rinse, dry with towels, and oil?

ps. why dangerous sulfuric acid with current, instead of sodium carbonate (washing soda)?

speedibee:
I have heard of some stuff called De-ox ,and was wondering what it was ?

Sounds awfully lot like citric accid :lol:

Secret is to remove first grease and grime.

Lately I have used vinegar from grocery store. It is 10% ready-to-use solution, then nylon brush, hot rinse, towel dry/shake  and light oil. You better use gloves or you will smelled pickle.

Missing that every household has scale/lime tea kettle remover. Mild mix of phosphoric acid and citric acid.
