Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Wanted to soak a couple rims in Oxalic acid.
Rather then soak in the big box lined with plastic that I soaked the Colson frame in a while back. I used one garbage bag.
Lay one large heavy trash bag on level ground.
Place two rims in center.
Place another rim on top. This one serves as a collar . You now have three rims on top of one another.
Bunch up plastic around top rim and wrap rope completely around inside of top rim over the plastic and tie off.
then wrap the rope around bottom rim and tie it .
I did not tie off a rope around the bottom rim on mine and the water pushes out the plastic,thus the bricks I placed around the rim to keep the plastic from spreading out. Be sure to secure the rope around top and bottom rims to avoid this. Buy "WOOD BLEACH" from Ace Hardware.
