Should I refurb or send for scrap metal?

[wafter]

I have used this method successfully in the past for derusting old tools & steam toys. I'll search out a sacrificial chrome bit to test?

Good work - would be interested to hear how you get on

Would electrolysis take the chrome off too?

That was one thought that came to mind when I considered it . It is one way that platers use to remove chrome .

Sell it to Drew "Patina" Pritchard!
