It seems a simple yet complicated process--dealing with rust. Complicated further by the expected use of the item, time, and money you have to put into the problem.
The trailer in my previous post is for me but I have no spare money and but I have an hour now and then for a year if necessary to get it done--one reason I like electrolysis where a few minutes submerging it and turning on the power and I can walk off while magic happens--but the trailer is too big. :)
The andirons were rusty and I'm selling for a friend. Rusty they drew no interest. Hook them up, drop them in the tank, dry them off, give them a coat of flat black and perhaps I can get people interested--thought process anyway. I can't put much effort or money into it or I might as well be giving them away.
I try to learn doing this stuff and I thought I'd see how others that used electrolysis handles flash rust. Like I think I said it seems quite logical that it'd be kinda hard taking steel out of a water solution and drying it fast enough it doesn't rust a tad.
