I use Oxalic for components i can submerge, but I've found that getting regular Naval Jelly and working it (and reworking, for about 10-15 min) with a brush does the trick. Rinses away with water, and gets you back to bare steel quicker and easier than the oxalic bath. Also found that it works faster/better in summer outdoor temps than it does in winter air.
