Morning Group
I just mixed up a cup of hot water with 3 tblsp citric acid and immersed 
a piece of rusty steel in it. Will report back on the results this PM.

Citric acid does work!
Just took a look at my sample test and what was below the water line was 
clean metal.
Next test is to spray a larger sample, a small table base, and see what 
happens. Plan to periodically spray the piece with a small hand held 
sprayer and keep it in a plastic garbage bag to help keep the moisture 
confined so the surfaces won't dry out.
See what happens...
