Title: Oxy bath question
Post by: Gary72 on August 10, 2012, 06:57 PM

How long are you supposed to leave things soaking for?
Put frame/forks,crank, spider and any other rusty bits in a tub about an hour ago. Should I leave them there overnight or just a few hours?

i guess that depends on how much rust has been built up and what mix ratio you have used.

i would defo check your items regular and before you go to bed.

i fooked up some opc's on my first attempt with way too strong a mix, if i'd have kept an eye on them they would have been ok

I put a kilo into approx 75 litresof water, The items see to have a residue on them at the moment. But I want to have a few more beers and dont fancy playing with chemicals after a few :crazy2:
