from the main VBMX thread by Ted Carl

Oxalic acid is typically marketed as a wood bleach in hardware stores.
It costs less than 10 bucks.
All you need to do is mix a few ounces of Oxalic acid in a large tub of water,
and soak the parts for 12-36 hours.
You simply wipe the parts free of the rust occasionally with a white (soft, non-abrasive) scotch-brite pad, and you are done.

seems very simple
my old oil drum may get the dye washed out and some of this dropped in  :)

Moose:
OK, I'll order some tomorrow and try it out on that Motobencane I just bought  :daumenhoch:

kdw712:
