Re: Removing Rust With A Lime
Interesting. If this isn't one of those fake video farm youtube submissions, I suspect it is the citric acid doing the work. Most likely vinegar would work just as well. Again, if this isn't faked somehow.
You can blame Mr. Suburban for my being here.

Re: Removing Rust With A Lime
Seems there are many better options for stopping rust than a little citric acid from a lime. Naval jelly is cheap and proven, for one.

But this is about removing it once it's there, naval jelly wouldn't be of much help there.ColonelJLloyd wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 3:01 pm Seems there are many better options for stopping rust than a little citric acid from a lime. Naval jelly is cheap and proven, for one.

Also, if it works citric acid is way more user friendly than phosphoric acid.Jeff B wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 5:41 pmBut this is about removing it once it's there, naval jelly wouldn't be of much help there.ColonelJLloyd wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 3:01 pm Seems there are many better options for stopping rust than a little citric acid from a lime.
