Default New toy gloat!

HCl in a tank, with some water to make it higher volume and when steel
is nice and gray - the rust floats off if brushed (with rubber gloves)
and then slide whatever into a large tank of Baking soda with soda sitting
on the bottom - to replace what is used up.

Steel comes out nice gray/steel color. Without baking soda the steel
will rust.

This takes off Black Scale from hot rolled and rust.

Martin - been doing it all week.

NOTICE: Abrasive blasting does NOT replace wire wheels!

I have a feeling your baddest arsed wire wheel is not as agressive as
abrasive blasting.

Actually...pretty close.

Ive used Black Max to remove rust, and Ive used Tommy's knotted wire
wheels, and at times...the wire wheels are the winners
