Molasses Rust Removal

I want to post a thread dedicated to Molasses rust removal. I think it is a great, cheap, and green friendly option people should use, if is works well.
The jury is still out for me until maybe tomorrow evening when I pull the parts after 24hours in the dip.

Have been reading the boards and hearing about using molasses and water as a rust remover, I had to try it.
I have used Meratic acid, Done electrostatic rust removal, So I had to try it since it is one of the most green friendly methods if it works. Well here are the first few pics of this project.

I purchased 64 oz of Black Strap molasses from Rural King



I thought I would use the Brake Reservoir cover because it was just the first and one of the most rust ridden easy to remove parts on the truck. Yes, I did remove the rubber seal before dipping.


Dipping in progress.


After only 4 hours of dip, and a light wire brushing.


Will post the rest of the project as soon as it is completed.
I started a gallery for this project. Will post more pics when complete.
