Hi,

Just to recap and hopefully push signal over other noise ratio I am unable
to make it into the space to do any emergency maintenance on the machine. I
suspect more corrosion will probably take place (please see my prior email).
So if there is someone around with the know-how it'd be fantastically cool
if they could do some or any of the preventative maintenance I mentioned in
my last mail.

It's a nice machine and it's a pity whats happened to it, I hope it wont be
further corroded away.

All acids will react with metal, but some acids will do it quicker
than others. Phosphoric acid (which is what we generally use for
removing rust) will react with the iron oxide a lot quicker than with
the iron. HCl will react with pretty much anything given half a chance
- it's a much stronger acid.
