We used to pour Coca Cola on rusty wheel rims and watch it
eat
away the
rust. This was when I was very young, but you could give
it a
try
to see if it works.

With any extended exposure, the carbonic acid in Coke dissolves
iron, not
just the rusty bits.

Anyone with more than freshman chemistry knows better. Folks, I
apologize for drawing-in opinions like this.
