Electrolytic Rust Removal - Bought a Craftsman 618 parts lathe that's a
prime candidate for rust removal. I went to HD and a supermarket in
search of washing soda, sodium carbonate, but all I got was quizzical
facial expressions from the help. So ....where do you get that stuff?

Muriatic acid will dissolve the rust without hurting the steel.
Pretty nasty stuff, though--I get an awful taste in my mouth just
thinking about it.
A 10:1 dilution with water might do it, or read the label.

Acid to the water!
