Cleanin up nuts and bolts
works with many small parts and is cheap..
Ive been soaking my nuts and bolts in white vinegar.. it totaly takes thye rust off. takes about two days and then i place them all in a jug with a bit of water and baking soda to help neutralize the acid and i just shake them around to flake the rust off. Try it soak em for a couple days and then the rust comes off like blanched tomatos.. now i just need to figure out what to do to coat them |
