This is a great "recipe" for rust removal. Two questions:

1. What's the concentration of malt vinegar? Here we use 5% vinegar.

2. What do you do about rust where parts cannot be dunked in the pan? This was my problem: I got the car because the entire front axle was immobilized.

Oh, third question: can you filter the vinegar and use it on chips?
