Electrolysis in cleaning of parts
« on: May 26, 2009, 06:46:38 am »
I thought this forum would have some interest.  I never did a search to see if it has been discussed on here before and haven't personally tried it but this Wheel Horse tractor forum has a great bunch of guys, several of which I have met.  Click on the link and give it a read.

Yes we've talked about it here a few times. http://www3.telus.net/public/aschoepp/electrolyticrust.html

It works decent for some things.

Similar to an HHO generator. Instead of using Baking soda, try... well nevermind that might result in mass production of flamable gas. Probly a bad idea.
