A product called Evaporust. This is a liquid that looks and feels like
soap. I have soaked rusted tools in it, and they come out clean and black.
It won't restore the shininess, though.


Thanks Leo and Rex for the tips on EvapoRust; it looks like a promising
product for this and many other de-rusting operations I come across. Now if
I can just find a local source for the stuff.



I also bought it and found to work as advertised. Unfortunately, it is
expensive.


Yep. about $18/gallon at retail.
But it's reusable until you can't stand to look at it.
Then you can pour it down the drain.
