Hi Jerry,

If you increase the number of sacrificial electrodes, you will get quicker results. I made a ring out of some weld mesh (non-galvinsed) to line the inside of my tub.

I do like the use of the foam to ensure the work piece doesn't short out.

Also - just a note to other - don't use a stainless steel electrode as the chromium is released during electrolysis. Most of the stuff I have read thus far points to the best results being gained using rusty electrodes, which is good because I had plenty of rusty old weld mesh :)

Don't forget to season that pan again right away, unless you just want to continue practicing on de-rusting it again....

Hi Willie,

OOOOOOO yes they will get properly seasoned.

The pans were given to me by my sister in law, she thought they were junk
and hoped maybe I could use them in one of my projects.
When my wife saw them her eyes lit up and asked can we clean them up for camping, and thus a project is born.

Thanks for the tip Mayhem


Jerry.

Thanks to all for your comments and suggestions,

this has been a fun experiment with a practical application.

I will be perfecting my new found metal derusting tool!
