Hi Jon
Just naturally over time but it doesn’t work as well over winter.
I went to our local agricultural suppliers and bought a huge horse feeding bucket. The molasses is about £8 for 5 litres again from the agricultural supplier (horse feed!). Dilute it 9 to 1 with water and put it somewhere where you don’t mind the smell! It tends to go mouldy (surface crust). In the summer it took about 3 weeks to strip a wheel to bare steel. Make sure you wash thoroughly and dry quickly before painting as surface rust tends to form.
Cheers
Howard
