Hi OM,
I was going to point that out, but hit the send button while fumbling
among the keys.
Phosphoric acid is a very good metal brightener. I used it when
cleaning shipboard equipment for Gov. contracts. I recall one fellow
in our group who picked up a coffee cup to use it as a solvent holder,
poured some in, and immediately dissolved the bottom right out. It
was as though he poured it straight through a sleeve.
