Works well. If it's heavy rust then soak it for 24hrs and use a small wire brush to help it. I had an old lump hammer head that was heavily rusted, now its clean to bare metal and painted with rust conversion paint. Looks new-ish with the new handle attached. I got the smaller jug, use a mesh paint filter when pouring it back into the container it came from.

The CRC Evapo-Rust Heavy-Duty Rust Remover does exactly what it promises—removes rust down to bare metal. It’s reusable, acid-free, non-corrosive, and water-based, which makes it a safe and convenient option for dealing with rust. However, I noticed that it takes longer to work compared to other brands I’ve tried.While the results are solid and it does get the job done, you’ll need to be patient. If you’re not in a hurry and prefer a rust remover that’s gentle on your materials and easy to use, this is a great choice. Just be prepared to wait a bit longer for the rust to completely dissolve. Overall, I’m happy with the product, but the slower action is something to keep in mind.

I love this stuff. I wish it wasn't quite so expensive, but the product works! I have used it to revive old rusty car parts and also used it to clean out all the rust of a metal fuel tank. Great product.

Used this stuff to remove rust from a scrench I found on the ground. Was caked with rust and had probably been there for years. Took a couple days of soaking but it’s now rust-free.

I’mULDATE: I used nearly the whole bottle and it didn’t so much :(_____on my second round of application and expect I’ll need a third. I got this because popular mechanics said it was the best but it’s not doing that much more than the baking soda paste I used. However, I’ve learned that using aluminum foil to remove baking soda actually causes a helpful chemical reaction and I found this to be true. It worked very well but as my stove hasn’t been cleaned in 50 years, it didn’t do enough. Vinegar didn’t do much on my corrosive vintage stove either tho I do find it cleans other things very well. Melamine sponges help with rust too but the ones I got were generic and actually better than Mr. clean so that’s another option. I think this stuff could help. I suspect I didn’t leave it on long enough but I waited at least until it dried. The instructions on the bottle don’t say how long to wait. It just says to submerge your item (I had to spray it) and the rust will eventually go away but it’s up to you if you want to try it out. My stuff also isn’t submerged. It did help a little after spraying it on and leaving it for about 45 minutes.

I bought this to test removingvrust on old used auto hardware. It worked surprisingly well. I put it in my ultrasonic cleaner & heated to 60° C. Set the timer for 30 minutes & this was the results. I recommend using a neutralizer when complete & heat dry to prevent flash rust from forming. My next mission is to try & do my own zinc electroplating.

Removed severe rust from a generator gas tank. Did a excellent job. Highly recommend this product
