What good would it do to soak a rusty piece of metal in water?


water is the solvent for rust and does much good
it will really loosen up the rust

i treated a table saw this way and it worked very well
i used a putty knife to scrape away most of the rust
then a wire brush with more water


If you use a phosphoric acid cleaner, like Boeshield Rust Free, there
would be no scrubbing or scraping necessary. Let science to the hard
work.
