How much effort did that require ?
I seen on another forum where a guy put his old brake discs into something. I think it was coke, and the difference after soaking was pretty amazing.
I did try with some cheap tesco coke and it did sweet FA lol
Is vinegar a better choice ? Or original coke maybe ?
I took to my front hubs with a grinder/flap wheel to clean and smooth them. Was bored one day ! Didnt take long either.
Wire knot wheel in a grinder is a good job too, albeit dangerous.
And is that the entire underside stripped to bare metal ??? patience of a saint ! lol

Whilst you can no longer buy it over the counter at your local chemists it is available through companies like Interlabs.stevieturbo wrote:Is that readily available ? Is that what it would be used for ?
I dont know exactly what its main usage is but it does work very well on removing rusty marks,cleaning metals and getting rid of stains in gel coat.

Depending on exactly what that is, you should keep it far away from the shiny bits as it will corrode stainless steel if it is this stuff.....
