Didn't remove any rust
Would Not RecommendApplied 3 times. The first for 10 minutes-2nd for 20, 3rd for 30. Could have used that time with an orbital sander. Did not remove any rust what so ever.

Didn't help
Would RecommendTried to clean some steel rusted wheels for a bed. It didn't work But your application maybe different.
Very versatile
Would RecommendMy moped was very rusted after sitting in the barn all winter. After using Naval Jelly, there is hardly any! It cleaned both the thinner and heavier rusted areas. It's a good product!

Moderately effective
Would Not RecommendI've used a few rust-removing products out on the market, and while Naval Jelly does seem to work... its applicability is narrow. I restore old hand-tools, and rust removal is an important step. Getting it done right the first time (and only *one* time) is definitely something I'm after. I tried it on several different tools -- and several sizes, with varying degrees of rust. It appears to perform best on light rust, which surprised me. It also performs better if you brush/sand the surface f...

Naval Jelly is not for just the Navy
Would RecommendI have used the product several times to removes rust from VERY difficult places. Brush it on, let it sit then rinse it off. It makes a great pre-paint surface of the bare metal. Just be sure to put on the first coat of paint soon. The surface is BARE and will start to corrode.

it works, but be patient and flexible
Would RecommendRedoing my bathroom, took in completely rust coated hinges to Lowes and asked if they had anything that would work, they said to try this. IT DOES WORK, and my hinges are a bit worse for the wear, but still better than having to buy dozens of new hinges when only a handful were rust coated. BE PATIENT!!! And be prepared to scrub with an iron scrub brush too (steel wool is too flimsy). I literally had to let my hinges soak in it overnight (I recommend ziploc baggie). About 90% of the rust did com...
Quality purchase!
Would RecommendUsed it on a old iron bench to eliminate the rust build up it had collected for 15 years sitting outside in Minnesota, worked like a champ but it leaves a white residue, be prepared to wire brush(cup brush) to remove excess. It's definitely a rust remover! Easy to use: wipe on, let stand 10 min, rinse off
