I'm for ATF and acetone in a container covered.

:agree2:
Good call, Dan.
Can't go wrong with this one.

You should do a search on electrolysis.

THIS USES LIVE ELECTRICAL CURRENT IN AN OPEN WATER BATH!!!! Hook everything up BEFORE you plug things in, and resist all temptation to move or adjust the parts until you UNPLUG FIRST. Keep kids, spouses, dogs, etc. away from this while it is running.

Since the battery charger puts out DC current to your anode and cathode, where is the shock risk?
An electric shock can occur upon contact of a human body with any source of voltage high enough to cause sufficient current through the muscles or hair. The minimum current a human can feel is thought to be about 1 milliampere (mA).
Death caused by an electric shock is referred to as electrocution. Generally, currents approaching 100 mA are lethal if they pass through sensitive portions of the body.
A low-voltage (110 or 230 V), 50 or 60-Hz AC current through the chest for a fraction of a second may induce ventricular fibrillation at currents as low as 60 mA. With DC, 300 to 500 mA is required. If the current has a direct pathway to the heart (e.g., via a cardiac catheter or other kind of electrode), a much lower current of less than 1 mA, (AC or DC) can cause fibrillation.
??????????????????????????????????????????
Seriously?

What I am saying is DC current is less dangerous than AC current. The current at the anode and cathode is DC. You can touch the clamped part you are trying to clean and not get electrocuted.
Also in any case battery chargers are not intended to supply low-voltage power for applications other than battery charging but I guess you knew that too.
I am not going to get in a peeing match with you here but I belive you are mistaken. If you think there is no danger in using DC current then I have to disagree. What kills you is amperage. The battery charger can produce anywhere from 2 amps to 200amps. It takes only a fraction of an amp to kill you.
The reason you can you safely touch it while it is producing this high amperage is because it is delivering the amperage at a low voltage. In general it takes about 60 volts to penetrate the human skin. The battery charger is not producing that high voltage. Now what causes problems is when something reduces the body's resistance to voltage. The common thing that does this is water.
There is danger in electrical shock allbeit low when proper safety practices are used.

bill it takes .5 milliamps shorted directly across the heart to kill you....learned that in welding class
Personally, if those chains have been outside for 2 years and rusted solid, I don't think it's worth the risk to life and limb to save a few dollars. You will never be able to tell what condition the pins are in and if it flies apart at the worst time it has the capability to cost a bunch more dollars than you save. Even a broke clutch cover is way more money than a chain not to mention a trip to the ER. Just my $.02
(. . . I hope you didn't learn that the hard way . . .)

I have to be different here and cast my vote for Evapo Rust.
Add one more vote for the diesel fuel
Take them to Thall's shop and let him derust and sharpen them for you while you wait. :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange: And tell him you need it done fast.
