Perfect for removing rust before refinishng

Similar to the anti-rust product this remover was the right start to our project of removing rust from our Mexican bench. Once the rust is loosened you can easily wipe it away and apply an anti-rust new finish.

The product did not work at all. I bought it to clean my chafing dishes and the rust is still there. I ended up purchasing disposable dishes.

Works well on automotive body surface rust.

Would Recommend

I have been using this to remove rust from the underside of a pickup truck rebuild project. This has been working well. Spray it on and wait. Directions are easy to follow and the results are easy to see. I have been following this up with Rust-oleum primer and have been very pleased with the outcome.

Great rust remover - used for fence

Would Recommend

Allowed it to soak for 30 minutes on a medium rusted fence. Worked wonderfully. I used an old toothbrush to apply the gel thoroughly and and scrubbed with a Purdy wire brush.
