Hutch trick star 2 resto...

<< < (2/3) > >>

oldschoolace:
It is an acid bath, citric acid. Most pop and fruit drinks have it in as well as loads of foodstuffs. Works in exactly the same way lemon juice would have done all those years ago  ;)

Jaymz:
ah, i thought it was the oxycylic or whatever its called

stuntmaster:
cool look like my old one i sold a few year back that had the same ie hutch stamp on top had been polish through and dropout back`s had been repaired

Mattdub:

Looks twenty times better  :daumenhoch: .

How much Youngs used & how long submerged ? ...

oldschoolace:
I used the seven tubs in the pic which are 50g each. It turned out to be a bit on the weak side so i left it in there for around 60 hours. I recon another 3 tubs would have done the trick but i had cleared out my local wilkinsons and couldn't be bothered to wait to get some of the bay ( which is a bit cheaper )

The great thing is, if you have got some way of storing the solution you can use it again and again. Not very practical for a paddling pools worth but a small bowl full for cranks and what not would be worth keeping  :daumenhoch:
