Electrolysis on 464 gas tank

Ok- after some reading I'm going to try electrolysis on my 464 tank. I want to remove paint from outside and rust from inside the tank. My sacrificial metal will be rebar suspended through the tank throat, I will hook that in series with some plates on the outside of the tank as well. I will get sodium carbonate from grocery or pool store. I have a 10 amp battery charger that I will use. 100 gallon plastic stock tank.

Anyone have any pointers or advice?

Thanks,

Bob
 
You mean to tell me that having 9 kids that are under 15 around might stall progress??

Yup. it will be done outside, in a safe area.
 

You might want to have a sacrificial annode on the OUTSIDE of the tank as well as the inside. Maybe even several annodes.

I've played with electrolysis only a little bit on smaller stuff. My suggestion may not be worth anything.
