Sorry, your answer deserved more response. I kind of thought of Naval Jelly
used for cars and such. I used it once for derusting some floorboards in an
old convertible. It worked fine though the damage had already been done.

Is the stuff acidic? It must be according to all the other advice. If so,
does water neutralize it and stop the reaction? Maybe this is where my cat
comes in.

I really do appreciate your input,

Earl Moon
