I love that electrolysis for de-rusting! Where do you get the liquid from and what voltage do you use? I have a powder coating system but I need to completely de-rust everything first. Looks like it's worth a try!

Water and Soda crystals, Old car charger, Plastic bucket
10 lires of water to one mug full of soda crystals is what I use as a electrolyte.
An old brake disk or cast iron metal on the live terminal of your charger and nutral terminal on the metal item you want to de-rust but dont let them touch in the bucket under the electrolyte or you will blow the charger
voltage can be anything from 6v to 24v any higher and you be makeing dirty hydrogen gas so no naked flames near the bubles in the bucket. (not that it matters they just go pop with a lighter)
Leave it for a day or two and the surface will have a brown crud like crude oil on the sea
Take metal thing out and hose it down with water the rust will just fall off with no effort then what your left with is black oxide powder on the metal this is a side effect of the rust all you do is steel brush or sand blast this off and your done.
Heres a video walk through of the whole set up

size is not of importance you can use a swimming pool and use an ark welder as a power sorce if you want to remove rust from a car chassis.I have no montego anymore
