I have been experimenting with different cleaning methods... and today I went to check on one of my many tubs that has been sitting about with things soaking in various liquids. Today I went to on my "white vinegar" tub (inspired by Buttons) I pulled out a Sten cocking handle that came out amazing. Right back to bare metal! A Thompson sling piece, that two was great as even with my wire brush drill the crap wouldn't shift. A Lee Enfield sling buckle, that came out so shiny that you could see a manfs details stamped into it a Sten cup thing, that's the now the cleanest one in my collection. Also a few other bits that came out great. So, I have out in lots of other bits to soak for a few days. So, a good tip... don't worry about rust remover all the time. Try vinegar first, on some things it works a treat. I couldn't take a pic as its too dark. I will do it tomorrow if I remember.

Did you try anything else in the vinegar ? Did you take pictures of stuff that has had the vinegar treatment ?
I've got 4 litre bottles of white vinegar waiting to be used but I wanted to see the results of your try with it first
