derusting chrome with wood bleach

[thom]

I've read about using wood bleach for derusting chrome and intend to try it myself.I am wondering if anyone on here has tried soaking a wheel with the tire still on it or a set of bars with a grip still on.I know it would not be a good idea to get the water/bleach in bearings. What I've got in mind is standing a wheel and tire up in a container and turning the wheel after a while' doing part of the wheel at a time.I believe folks are using plastic containers for the soaking so I'm thinking it might not hurt tires and handles. I'll know in a few days because I'm going to try it unless advised otherwise.Thanks :?: :?:

I have been using white vinegar with baking soda with decent results...and safe around kids.

I'd recommend taking the tire off. That way the bead area gets cleaned too, and your tires don't get all nasty looking.

I take the tire and the rim liner off so the inside of the rim gets the rust removed also i`ve had very nice results, even helps with rusty spoke nipples to loosen them
