Use washing soda 40 gm and citric acid 100 grams and a couple of drops of washing detergent in a litre of water you will get great results in an hour give it a quick scrub and put it back for longer for any remaining rust its the best mixture i have found i just derusted some tools came up great.and you can tip it in the garden its not toxic
I wanted to use baking soda since washing soda is hard to find, and/or expensive where I live. Did you use ultrasonic cleaner or not? I think this method may be too aggressive for that.
I have been getting better results by mixing the chemicals more carefully. Also, you are missing the surfactant -- Dish Soap in the US or Washing Up Liquid in the UK. Reminder: Add the washing up liquid only after combining the water, baking soda, and citric acid or you will have another foaming problem.
Thanks for the comment and great suggestion! I forgot to mention on the video, but i had premixed my water with dish soap. I'm pretty confident that exacerbated my foaming problem...

Maybe use sodium hydroxide instead of sodium bicarbonate it wont bubble at all
Thanks for the suggestion! I'm using baking soda only because it is cheap and easily accessible 😅
