Quick electrolysis question concerning rust removal from iron. I have an old, dug cast iron stove door. I have been working on cleaning the rust off of it. It has had about 20-25 hours of time in the electrolysis bath so far. I am running 400mA. I have been able to get 95%-98% of the rust off this way. There are some stubborn spots that have not loosened at all. I have even tried hitting some of these spots on the back of the door with a wire brush without much luck. What is the best way of finishing off this project? Is there a particular method of getting the last little bits of rust off? This door has some beautiful scroll work and lettering on it and I want it to look the best that I can.
Thanks for your help.
