Rust Removal Using Electrolysis

Recommended Posts

That's some good info!

I like to use the electrolysis tank for larger and heavily rusted things but also use cider vinegar for smaller pieces with just surface rust. The vinegar works great for doing the inside of fuel tanks and it works great on things like chains. The electrolysis tank works on "line of sight" to the electrode so more intricate pieces, like chains, do better soaking in the cider vinegar to reach all the surfaces. Did a bunch of old chainsaw chains and they came out looking like new.

We have some guys here that use this method. I believe that most use a laundry soap, such as Arm&Hammer with the water. I myself find the process pretty slow and prefer to blast with sand or steel shot.
