Evapo-Rust ER012 Heavy Duty – 128 oz., Rust Remover for Auto Parts, Hardware, Antiques | Rust Removers and Chemicals

It works well, but I recommend leaving the items to soak for a good 24 hrs. The product can be left to work for an extended period without corroding or altering metals. Also, it should be used at room temperature; cold temperatures inhibit action and slow performance.

I do a lot of work with bikes, and often come across lots or rusty bolts, cassettes, chains, derallieurs etc. This stuff works wonders. It doesn't do 100% of all my goods, but i'd say about 98% comes out great, sometimes depending on the metal, it turns it black. But if its chrome, its brilliant. Its happened on a couple of chains, turned the links black, but on some silver chains it's fine. I recently did some files which again worked great but they turned black, but who cares, they are files, and do the job whatever colour they are. Would I say worth the money?.......All day long. 5 litres of this stuff is likely to last me a lifetime, and its apparently Eco friendly. I'm off to try some drill bits now.

Having read good reviews on-line and seen the success on YouTube,, I purchased a couple of containers and gave it a go. The items have to be submerged in the solution and I've found that agitating them regularly and rubbing over the surface with your fingers helps to speed things up a little. I've found it to be very good and it does indeed remove the rust back to bare metal within around 24 hours with no visible damage to the item being de-rusted. I have used the solution multiple times and it continues to work well. Once it eventually runs out of de-rusting capacity, I will definitely get some more. Since this is a solution and the items need dunking into it, its not ideal for larger items. Tests against gel product shows that this seems to work far better than they do. To conserve the amount of fluid needed during de-rusting, I've used empty 1.5L fizzy drink plastic bottles, buckets and even drain pipe with a stopper on the end as containers, so think laterally about how you will submerge the item whilst using the smallest amount of solution possible. Some people advise to put sealed containers containing water in the vat to raise the level in an inexpensive manner.

work as described

Good stuff, does what it says.

I actually haven't unpacked this flagon of Evaporust yet but that doesn't stop me from giving a review. That's because I previously bought a One Litre flagon to try out. It's not cheap but It worked so well that I'm now confident it will be cost-effective to use it on some larger items, that is why I then bought the One Gallon size.

This is an amazing product. My partner has used it to remove rust from his 12 year old Evo X. It will remove rust from parts in literally a couple of hours. Hes a very happy man!

I was sceptical having tried many products but not only is this reusable (until its too brown) but safe and removed really heavy rust from my tools.

国内品色々試してましたが、綺麗に錆びが落ち切らず何度も漬け置きしたり、酸・アルカリの刺激臭・異臭がしたり、 直接触れない物だったりと扱いが面倒なの上に、錆びが落とし切れず結局後で散々研磨したりしていました。 Evapo-RustははYoutubeのHand Tool Rescueという古い工具をレストアするチャンネルで使用されており、綺麗に錆 が落ちていたので試しに購入してみました。赤鯖だらけになったネジやに黒錆になっているドライバやニッパとかの工 具を試して見ましたが数時間～二晩漬け置きしておけば殆ど錆が落ちます。動画で見た通りの使用感でした。 酷い錆は錆びてた箇所に若干シミが残りますがワイヤーブラシで磨けば落ちる程度だったので試してはいませんが漬け て置く時間をもっと延ばせば落ちるような気がします。 液は酸やアルカリを含まないので素手で触れても大丈夫です。匂いはちょっと癖のある薬品臭がしますが私はそれ程嫌 な臭いには感じませんでした。同社のジェルタイプも同時購入して使用しましたがこっちの方は液体の匂いを濃縮した ようなキツイ匂いです。ジェルタイプはアルミの錆にも使えるのと大きくて漬け置き出来ない物や垂直面に塗っても垂れにくく、効果は液体タイプと遜色ありませんでした。 液体・ジェルタイプどちらも水洗いしただけでは金属光沢までは蘇らず表面にうっすらとくすんだ膜みたいな物が形成 されているので、水洗いして乾燥させた後にワイヤーブラシ等で軽く磨いてやる必要はあります。 漬け置き後に水洗いしなければくすんだ膜が防錆剤としての効果を維持してくれる様です。 ルーターに真鍮製のブリストルブラシやカップブラシを付けて軽く磨く程度で楽に金属光沢が出てきます。 値段は高めですが一回使用の使い切りでは無く、錆落としの効果が無くなるまで繰り返し使用が可能なのでトータルで 見ればコスパは良いと思います。 大き目のジャムの空き瓶に小分けして繰り返し使用してます。使用する度に液はだんだん錆び色に濃く染まりますが、 数回程度使用した位では効果が薄れたような感じは全くありませんでした。

This stuff is brilliant for rusty steel, better than white vinegar. I had bolts and bicycle parts that were basically clean, but pretty well rusted. No caked on grease or dirt, a good layer of rust but not caked up thick. I put them in a plastic container of this stuff. It dissolves the rust into the solution, so no wire brushing needed unless the part is covered in gunk. It takes a while. I did the first screw in an ultrasonic cleaner and they were done in an hour. I put the more complicated parts with deep sockets into a container of this and let it soak for a couple of days, they came out beautiful! Depending on the steel it will either come up clean or have a gray/black conversion coating. Great for screws/tools, the conversion coating helps hold oil to prevent future rusting. It won't eat the base metal. Rusty pliers could sit in this for a month, the rust will dissolve but the pliers won't have any pitting except for what the rust did. I wouldn't use it on my antique rifle, because the color might turn, but it's great for general purpose stuff like tools and hardware.

Great help

Great product, I used it to restore a completely rusted in and out trunk latch of my classic car. Worked great, unbelievable results. Recommended it to all my friends..

I was looking for a good safe product to clean a kit that unfortunately rusted over the winter in my garage. After reading on the Evapo-Rust, I decided to give it a try, and I was impressed with the results. I used a rust inhabiter to protect my kit. This product really met my expectation. I recommend this product to restore your rusted tools.
