This is a LARGE Info Section. TWO PAGES , one being almost 15,000 lines, the other around 9000. Each have the same index. If content is on the OTHER page, you will be seamlessly directed back and forth. It may take time to load depending on your equipment or service.

Jan 2023 is an attempt to increase the effiency of the "back and forth". Be patient. I do not use PHP, this is all HTML. Please email if you find any errors.

    BEST rust remover for small parts= Coca-Cola (Soak in a pan of it) - Phosphoric Acid IS a rust dissolver / Coca-Cola is full of it in mild concentration / If you can find a commercial cleaning solution with it, buy it! Industrial Bathroom cleaners have it.
