Cleaning up a rusted cast iron BBQ burner with molasses and water.
Molasses mixed with water 1:10 ratio (by volume).
Rust in molasses/water reacts to form phosphoric acid (a common ingredient in off-the-shelf rust converters) right where it is needed.
Eco friendly and gentle, use on garden when done.
Use cheap stock feed molasses.
Pressure washers can make the cleaning faster.
Takes time - up to a week in my experience for heavy rust (sub tropical zone).
