Ive tried brown and white here and white seems to work best downunder, but then we have different products here of course and no Tesco LOL. Currently got a bunch of bolts slowly fizzing away in a pot in the garage and a bracket from an LC that was totally rusted, will see how that comes up.  |

OK... here goes... LOL...
Small brackets with surface rust came up a treat in white vinegar but the very rusty sprung clip (from the top airbox, anyone know what it holds?) was too far gone and its been eaten away. Before i started you could have argued it would clean up ok, but its trashed now. so be a bit careful is my advice... will try and do pic of that clip/bracket thingy from the airbox.
