Rust removal on tools
Several months ago, there was some talk about rust removal for tools. Something called BP, or PB, Hp, PH or something like that. Anyone remember the name and where to buy, thanx.

Ospho works great to remove and kill rust. Available at most hardware stores.

Soak em in a bucket of diesel, most of the rust will just wipe off after an overnight soak. Effective and cleans up fairly easy. I always pull em out, lay on newspaper to dry overnight, give a lil rub in the morning, good as new. Also, will prevent future rusting.

Try some mild strength HCL (hydrochloric acid) from a pool supply store. Lucky for me I have a small sand blast cabinet from my car rebuilding days.
