Needless to say, I am a skeptic when it comes to ads about products, but for the money, I had to try this stuff. All I can say it is incredible. My project has surface rust and I was going to get it sandblasted. I thought before I did that, I would try this product for $12.99 a quart. WOW! It really works and is easy,quick to use. I did 2 control arms this morning in about 1/2 hour. Look at the before / after results.

Attachments
I buy 5 pound bags of citric acid (used in food processing grade) and it works well. The mix I like is 1 pound to 5-gallons of water. And it is CHEAP.
I've dipped control arms, bumper brackets, loads of small parts (in a pool skimmer basket) and after a few days the rust washes off easily with a plastic brush.
I use old cat litter plastic containers and have a bigger 20-gallon Rubbermaid tub. I did the front of my hood recently in a bigger container (under the bed storage unit).
But whatever you find and share helps us all.

They look nice! It sure is an energy booster when you can see things getting done... Good job!
I also use the citric acid. cleans up a lot of rusty engine parts. It will etch surfaces if part is left soaking in too long tho. I will try the Speedway stuff.:thumbup:
Progress
This week, I feel I accomplished quite a bit. Derusted the whole chassis and applied two coats of primer, allowing it to dry 24 hours between coats. plan tomorrow is, try to add one coat of chassis black. Will see what happens. By the way, I used a little less than 2-1/2 quarts of the deruster on the project. That included doing the complete chassis, 4 front control arms, 2 rear brake drums, 4 bars, for my rear end and the complete rear axle housing. At $13.99 per quart and some, not much, elbow grease, I had an outlay of $46.00, which included my bag of 20 cheap foam brushes from Wally World.
