New Way To Remove Rust
"I recently came up with a way to use potatoes to clean rusty iron," says Ron Bennett, Rochester, N.Y., in a recent issue of the National Hay Tool Collectors Association newsletter.
  "Slice up 10 lbs. of potatoes. Place a large plastic bag into a box or tub large enough to hold the part that you want to de-rust. Place the part in the bag, and add the potatoes and enough water to cover the part. Seal up and come back in two weeks. Remove the part and power wash clean. The rotting potatoes clean off all the rust."
