You can get oxalic acid from your local pharmacy. CVS here. I got some and it works well with the little odds and ends stuff I've tried it on. I hope to get another helmet to really see.

Ok guys here is the result of using 'Rust Remover'

This is what i started with..........

And this is what i ended up with after leaving it to soak over night. All i did after the soaking was wash in warm soapy water and then dry. No rubbing or ANYTHING !!!!

It even revealed a mark i had not previously been able to see !!!

And here's the stuff you should get

Halfords sell it

Hope this helps you guys

Cheers, Ade.
