I bought this half kilo from ebay  http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170572693487#ht_500wt_922

Filled the bath up enough to cover the frame with hot water and chucked the lot in.  Left it all day while i was out.  It took of a lot of the surface rust but tbh the chrome was shot on the frame and what you can still see is where the chrome has gone completely.  Would imagine it'd work well on slight surface rust but next time i'll just get out the coke and tin foil again.

Didn't harm the bath at all.
