I recently read the old post about home made rust remover recipes and am wondering if there are any new developments or formula's proven to work.
Also, it seemed that a major issue with the vinegar/lemon juice/salt formula was neutralizing the acid once the parts were cleaned. Has anyone tried running newly cleaned parts through a cycle in a dishwasher. Other than a possible domestic squabble, would this be an effective way to neutralize the acidic residue?

I used the salt/vinegar (HCL acid) recipe to remove rust on my '65 Satellite project. To neutralize the acid, I used Arm&Hammer Baking Soda mixed in some water. Then used hot hot water for the final rinse, and towel-dry and compressed air dry the part.
