I made a couple of test pieces that I glued to the metal and set them outside my shop door. They've been exposed to the elements for the last six...

Phosphoric acid in soda water. Along with other chemicals.[ATTACH]
From what I've read you need to find sulfur molasses, you need to go to a feed store. It also smells pretty bad. There are many options, I'm...
Blasting cabinet would be another way to go but I used a 8"x12" plastic container on my bench. I hate blasting. Like most I don't have a blast...
I've tried vinegar, didn't do much on the rusty parts. Some in other posts mention muriatic acid, I wouldn't allow that stuff in my shop. Used...
I've been using a gallon of Krudkutter rust buster doing the same thing for a long time but eventually lost a little everytime I used it. It was...
