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

[Greg Taylor <amundaza@xxxxxxxxx>]

Aluminum is inert to citric acid, which is why soda pop is in aluminum cans.  Stainless would be fine.  Get a black 55-gallon drum, set it in ths sun, put the rusty Borla parts in it with water and citric acid and go to town.
   
  I will forward one of the older AMC-List posts on Citric acid.

Yeah, I missed that info.
How about a fresh link?
It does no harm to the aluminum?
What about stainless? The Borla header I have to fix is rusty [high quality stainless, sure it is]
A bath in a large warmed tub would do it good I gather...
I had planned on bead blasting and polishing it to help it fight corrosion before wrapping it up in heat wrap.
Maybe a bath would be better?
Anyone try a solar heated tank etc; for this on large parts??? 
hmmm....
Might free up those old stuck motors.
