I'm familiar with the stuff but would never really
consider using it on
electronics gear--it's basically phosphoric and sulfuric acids with some
detergent and silica as a polishing agent. The "jelly" is nothing more
than Xanthan gum (also used to thicken salad dressing).
Surely, there must be safer ways to clear away rust!
Not safer, but better. Commercial Naval Jelly is pretty weak stuff.
There is a liquid form out there (I do not recall who makes it) that
is much stronger and really does a number on rust. It will also really
do a number on your eyes, too.
