Re: [Amc-list] Citric Acid Rust Remover ... Pics Uploaded !!!

Greg,

I'm very interested in this method. I am planning to do an entire engine
after its been degreased.
Please contact me with more details.
Where did you find the powdered citric acid??
What temperature did you use?
What should be done when the process is done to preserve the metal from
rusting again before painting??
Armand

which look awesome, in the stroker.

water to all but 1/2" of the con-rod "stubs" sticking out.  Added 20 table
spoons of Citric acid and turned them on low.  2 hours later, they're nearly
clean of rust.  Radically quicker with the heat added.  I'll have to post
some before and after pics on Photobucket, when they're done.  I'll post
back the link, so you all can see how awesome this citric acid works!
