Coillies + Hub Cleaning

[Liam1805]

Hello guys i have just got some coillies and conversion hubs which are caked in rust, what is the best way to get these cleaned up as i cant see a wire brush etc doing the job

Any info on this will be appreciated

Wire brush on a drill to get most crusty off then soak in rust remover solution overnight. There is one you can get from Halfords by Hammerite that is bright green and you water it down.

No it's a liquid like water that you water down. You immerse things in it. Vinegar will work too, forgot about that one.
