Thanks for trying to assist but I know about sulphuric acid.

It's sodium carbonate dissolved in water in plastic container. Connect
a car battery to the object to be de rusted and the other wire to a
stainless steel anode in the water.


Sulphuric acid - H2SO4 - produces an acidic solution when it dissociates in
water
Sodium carbonate - Na2CO3 - often hydrated as Na2CO3.xH2O - produces a basic
solution.

You've given me a good laugh for today though.


But not as much as your lack of comprehension! He never even mentioned
sulpuric acid until someone else did...and the above was two separate
sentences, not a combined description of sulpuric acid.
