[SEL] rust help

[Germoamer at aol.com]

Yesterday at the flea market, I purchased a bucket full of sockets 1/4.  
3/8, 1/2 drive, Craftsman and SK, for the grand price of $10.  Well  over 150 
sockets and one 30mm Craftsman socket is worth the $10. We had  rain for the 
past week, and the bucket must have sat outside, so they are  covered with 
surface rust.  This comes off easily with a wire wheel, but  how to remove 
from inside the sockets?  Right now, after wire brushing the  outsides, I am 
dropping them in a bucket of oil.  If I had a large tumbler,  I would try 
corn cobs.  Any ideas out there?
 
Happy Mother's day to all the mothers out there!
 
Thanks
