yes you can
just remember a couple of things
You'll need more electrolyte, in a pool I'd use 50 - 80 pounds of soda ash
you'll need a LARGE anode or several anodes strategically placed
you'll either need a larger power supply or it will take a pretty long time

Also the solution gets pretty disgusting, so cleaning the pool would be a MAJOR
PAIN

However I have every intention of  cleaning the frame for my MGA using a wood
frame, poly sheet and my welder as a power supply

If we use a swimming pool, can we dip an entire Spridget body?

I set up my electrolitic rust removal system in the garage night before
last.
This set up ROCKS!!!!!
I did the prototype in a 5 gallon bucket and used a 6 amp battery charger
for the first test a dropped in a horribly rusted coil spring.
I connected the leads, turned on the power and 2 hours later washed all the
rust
off under warm water.
