Parts cleaning

What is the best chemical to clean parts that are rusty greasy or just plain old and have lots of dirt. I want some kind of acid chemical that I can keep in a 5 gallon buket submerge my part then remove after a while and have it clean. Any opinions?

I use Gunk SC (Ace Hardware special orders it for me) mixed with mineral spirits.

I have some battery acid it was sold to me from a asttery store (car) I thinjk it is sulfiric acid and watter. It removes rust well but dosnt remove grease at all.
