I've been using muriatic acid to remove the rust. Don't know if I'd use it on detail stuff but it cleans nasty wheels like right now.

@ Sam Mac, I've got some rusty wheels I'll have to try that on. Do you dilute it or full strength ?

I'm a bit nuts, I use it full strength. I posted some before and after pics in the painting wheels post.
Use caution with it. The fumes will burn your lungs big time. I'm used to working with it from my years in the ready mix concrete business.

I have restored a few old pipe wrenches with that acid and it does work! Watch how long you leave it set in it. I had got a plastic cat litter box from the junk store for a pan.
Then be prepared to clean and primer right away, as you will see the rust come befroe your eyes.

Be careful how you store muriatic acid. Iv'e seen it rust everything metal in a shop, just from the fumes escaping what seemed to be a tightened cap. I keep a jug in my hazards locker but I put a large ziplock over the jug and seal it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
