Evapo-Rust Rostentferner

I was skeptical about a non-acidic rust remover, but this chelated solution lifted the corrosion off my old handtools in about a day without damaging the metal. Just left them soaking in a plastic bin and rinsed, and the bare steel underneath was clean and ready for oiling.

Left an old brace and bit in the bucket overnight and the metal came out clean without any scrubbing or harsh fumes — that was the biggest win for me. It's pricey for the size, but the fact it’s reusable multiple times makes it worth it for the workshop.

Soaked a rusty hand plane for two hours and the corrosion just floated off, no scrubbing or fumes at all. The solution stays clear enough to reuse, which makes the price feel fair for how much metal it saves.
