I agree with the previoius post. I'm sorry you had bad results. That rust stripper trick works best on thick cadmium plating. I suspect yours is bare steel, has a very thin cad plating or is plated with something else. Also I don't think I used DeOxit, more likely WD40. DeOxit is expensive stuff. The idea is to leave a protective film. More recently I've been using Boeshield. It's a metal corrosion inhibitor developed by Boeing that works very well.
