Molasses goes bad very quickly. how can this be? i am on my 4th soaking of different parts and i have not had to clean the drum out other than the mold when i change the parts out. The product is BIODEGRADABLE and basically effortless.
A quicker way to remove rust is a bucket, some rebar, battery charger and some caustic soda...works well and very quickly...
I have also tried that, drawbacks i encountered were the fumes were toxic and i didn't want that in my garage. you have to mix the soda constantly. For me this was easiest and i had nothing to do but let them soak.
what work or effort?
FILL DRUM WITH WATER. MIX MOLASSES WITH WATER. PUT PARTS IN. PUT LID ON. WALK AWAY. COME BACK ONCE A MONTH AND CHECK PARTS. WHEN I FEEL THEY ARE READY I PULL OUT, WASH OFF, PRIME AND UTILIZE THEM.
i have a glass bead cabinent. too abrasive for some parts i do not want to pit. also the parts i am soaking are nothing i am in a rush to have so there was no need to blast.
greatest part was the only thing molasses did was remove rust. nothing else.
