A little electrolysis ......

[flatbutton]

The hunt got rained out today, and I got bored, so I ran one of the more interesting looking pieces of iron that I found recently through for a few hrs. I think it cleaned up pretty nice!

Hello,

Very nice restoration! What voltage and current are you running? What is the time of electrolysis?

Regards,

I used an old cordless phone adapter that is 9volts and 400 mA . I think I ran it for about 4 hrs. When I pulled it out, it still had a pretty good crust on it. When I rinsed it off, the remaining crust just kinda fell off very easy.
