Help!! Please. Lathe restoration project

[woodfarmer]

Really good progress. Good to see those well made things of yesteryear being in or brought back into service.

Can I ask what you used to dip? I assume the dip was for rust removal. I have been trying to track down a source for Evaporust in the UK for a project I have.

There have been lots of mentions of "Corrodip" on the hand tools forum, since Jimi43 bought a gallon at a bootfair and got great results. This thread about it https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/forums/corrodip-ok-who-was-it-t61544.html included a link to the UK distributor for Evaporust:
