If only it could make food, pour beer, and light a cigar....."sigh*
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

I keep hearing that warning, but I've never seen any evidence to back it up. On separate occasions I've experimented with white vinegar on rusted cast iron pans, steel nails, and an old SR. I have left and checked on these materials in the vinegar for 10+ hours--in the case of the steel nails, I left them in there for 5 days-- and found that the vinegar did not harm the material. The vinegar loosened up the rust and made it easier to scrub it off. The SR got a patina on it, which I was able to easily scrub off.

Thanked: 3215Evaprrust works well and quickly. Posted a thread on here a couple of months ago with photos, Search Evaprorust. You can reuse the same solution over and over again. A good value, over night is usuallly enough time to remove all rust. I put a couple of blades in a enpty 12 oz water bottel.
