Speaking of rust, a couple of us have tried this….

Non-toxic, biodegradable, reusable, rise with water. No smell. Dump anywhere, other than where you want rust colored grass.

Used an old photo tray, did a bunch of 100 year old, (Grandfather’s)  “neglected” drill bits. Look better than new.

For large objects, (tower legs) jug says soak a rag and place on rusted area.

Friend asked his chemist buddy who started to mumble about oxygen and iron atoms left in the dark.

Got mine at Harbor Fright…….
