Can oxalic acid be used for treating rust on metal surfaces?

Yes, it certainly can. However, it's best to use a small amount and test first before removing rust from a large area. Also, you need to be really careful using it - it's a very dangerous chemical.

Here's an article that'll tell you all you need to know about safety precautions:howtoknowledgebase.com/2009/09/handle-ox... here's a forum of people who use oxalic acid to clean up old beer cans for some good 'before and after' oxalic acid pics:therustybunch.com/phpBB3/search.phpI do hope this helps, if you want a more specific answer, just ask! Thanks,Victoria.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
