I'm back with a report on how it turned out. It exceeded my expectations, I can't believe how well it worked. I'm convined that it's the best way to derust, if you have the time, space and equipment to do it. Making your own tank was easier than I thought, I would make it slightly bigger next time. I was concerned about not putting a floor in it, but it worked fine, I would just double up on the plastic liner. I would also come up with an easy way to pull the anode and clean it. I had a piece of grader blade laying in the bottom and it seemed to loose it's affectiveness after awhile, but I was afraid to move it for fear of tearing the plastic liner. I then took a piece of 2 inch pipe and made hangers for it and hung it between the door holes on the cab, easy to put in and take out and a sinch to clean. If sodium carbonate works better than sodium bicarbonate I might be even happier. Hope this might help anyone who is considering using this method. Dave
