Tools and Hardware Reviews of Evapo-Rust Rust Remover, 1 Qt
Customer Review: I Was Skeptical, But This Really Works!
Summary: 5 Stars
I often buy used tools (mostly sockets) from flea markets and such. These often have surface rust. Additionally, I had some tools in a box which I forgot about outside for several years, and these developed serious rust.
I heard about Evaporust on an online forum and thought I'd try it, not expecting much improvement. I was very pleasantly surprised by the results. A decades-old Vlchek universal socket which I still use occasionally (3/4" and 19mm are almost identical in size) had developed surface rust on the middle link (not chromed). Two days in Evaporust cleaned it up very nicely -- not gleaming, but dull, clean bare steel.
The best example was an old nail set which was completely rusted. I put it in a bowl of Evaporust, with the struck (hammer) end just out of the liquid. Two days later, the part below the surface was mostly rust-free, and the part above the surface provided a dramatic before-and-after contrast.
For best results, wash the part to be soaked in good grease-cutting dish soap, or use a commercial degreasing fluid if you have that. Areas with oil are not de-rusted.
Also, if the final appearance is important, make sure the part is suspended above the bottom of the bowl (or whatever container is used to hold the Evaporust). As the chemical in Evaporust reacts with the rust on the part, it changes color from yellow to black. The resulting black solution is thickest on the bottom of the bowl, and this will permanently deposit itself on the part. On the nail set mentioned above, the pin (nail end)is darker than the center shaft. This may or may not be a problem, and if you want the part to have a blacker appearance, ensure it is on the bottom.
So...this stuff is not cheap, but it works. For tools over a certain minimal value, it's well worth the investment. My only regret was that I didn't buy a five-gallon jug to start! Five stars.
