I just picked up all the parts to convert my 9" SB C to an A. the apron is all rusty inside but the gears are cherry ,hence I bought this instead of a cleaner worn one . A friend said to put it in a pail of water with 1 tbs per gal of water of "wash soda" and place a couple of anodes in there as well and hook up the battery charger for a few hrs/day. The problem I have is can't find "wash-soda" in the store! This wouldn't be Arm +Hammer baking soda ,would it ? If not does anyone know a brand name ? The other question is the electrical connection, does the positive go to the Apron or the anode???? Or should I just take it apart and wire wheel it etc? This way is supposed to get where the sun don't shine, it would be nice to neutralize the hidden rust but I'm not about to guess how the process is done, if anyone could help with an answer, I would appreciate it! Thanks in advance!
