WD-40 Specialist Rust Remover Soak, 1 gallon

I have an extremely rusted tool with several crevices. I soaked it for 3 days and there is not a rust spot visible. Does not appear to penetrate extremely tight/rusted spots.

I can't afford to buy all my tools new. In fact - none of my big tools - from scroll saw to band saw to jointer and drill press - all used. All had rust issues when bought. I knew - oye rust? I think I can fix that - might have a stain here or there - but - I can make it baby butt smooth. And this is what I go for. In fact - this year I left for a bit and forgot to wax my band saw table - when I came back - about 1.5 months later - it had surface rust and the wood didn't slide smoothly like it should .. spread this stuff on it like I did when I first got it and used a bit of steel wool and 1000 or 4000 grit sand paper on it .. and .. a little Johnson's Paste Wax .. and I have a very slippery sliddey surface again .. ready to make some saw dust.

I found an old, porcelain Coke sign. The porcelain is in like-new condition; however, the original metal brackets were very badly rusted. I searched the internet for the best way to remove the rust. Acid was by far the best option, but there was a possibility that the acid would also eat through the metal. Then I saw that WD-40 SPECIALIST RUST REMOVER SOAK was the second best option. When I placed the sign in the tub to soak it; I thought to myself, this is like water, it is not going to do anything. BOY WAS I WRONG!!! After a few hours, the metal began getting rid of the rust. After 24 hours, the rust was all gone and my old sign was like new again!!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!! And the other great thing about WD-40 SPECIALIST RUST REMOVER SOAK is that I was able to pour the entire gallon back into the bottle to use again. Now how great is that?

I bought this product to help with outside older rusted items around our home and let me tell you it has made these items look almost brand new! I used to just pour some coke on it and look back the next day, but this product has taken things to the Next Level!

This stuff works miracles! I had a ton of different brands of socket heads that had a lot of rust accumulation and I let them soak for 24 hours and you would think that they were brand new! Great stuff!

Great product.

Removed about 95% of rust from some old vintage hand planes, railroad spikes, and other old metal. Would definitely buy again.

I have used it once so far, soaking for 2 hours to clean some old tools salvaged through an estate sale. It did indeed clean the rust however, the drop-forged tools seem to have suffered some pitting that is reminiscent of long immersion in white vinegar or other weak acid solution. So that was a disappointment as the WD-40 product claims to be completely environmentally safe. As a note, items included were a 19th century Ohio Tool plane which was unaffected, several high quality and/or japanned black wrenches, and a half dozen or so "drop forged" wrenches dating to the early 20th century. The pitting was only seen on the unpainted, drop forged pieces. With that in mind, I would say that it is excellent on tempered an/or polished steel and painted items, but raw, unpainted iron, or low carbon steel, might be a caution.

IT IS LIKE WATER !! DOING NOTHING WAIST OF MONEY

I followed instructions - cleaned with a wire brush and let soak for 3 DAYS (vs. 30 minutes)
