Excellent article. Speaking of "free iron," this reinforces one of the corrosion control practices I learned long ago in the Navy: Never use a wire brush on anything but untreated steel/iron. Ceramic abrasives are electrically neutral and therefore do not promote pitting.

Scotch‑Brite™ for the win.
