Plug in a 4amp transformer.

I let it run until the bubbles stop which can be a couple of days, turning the parts periodically.

I'm surprised and pleased by how well it works. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) Any metal that is touching the copper wires or touching another piece that is touching the copper wires gets cleaned. If I have small parts like nuts or washers I just thread them together on a loop of copper wire and drop it in.
