I remember using a bucktfull of muriatic acid (concrete cleaner) to de rust steel pipe. I made the mistake of leaving the bucket in the workshop, uncovered, when I went away to work for five weeks. When I got back every piece of raw metal in the workshop had grown a layer of rust…..
Excellent stuff. I found a supplier that will ship to me.

I became aware of the power of creep when I spilled gallons of veg oil in the back of the Transit in 2002. Ten years later, there was not a peck of rust on the bottoms of the panels, where you'd normally find some.
the other thing I found good was used transmission fluid from my old ferguson tractor , It had gone off colour by ingress of water but it worked well as rust proofer !Excellent stuff. I found a supplier that will ship to me.

Arthur's idea of oil and kerosene will also work, but used oil contains a bit of engine acids. How much, I'm not sure but might be enough to cause a problem.
