Greater than one weekThe online videos of this product lead to great expectations, and this product does NOT disappoint. My rusty surplus Galil magazines are actually pretty good looking now with practically ZERO labor on my part.

> 3 dayI thought I would try this brand Evapo-Rust as it was cheaply priced with decent reviews. I’m restoring a bbq smoker and tried the product with these pieces to see how well it worked. As you can see from the pics it worked great! I highly recommend it. Because the parts were greasy from being used I just simply washed them in my hand with dish soap for about 30 seconds prior to soaking them. They soaked overnight for about 11hrs.

> 3 dayIf you want to protect your investment, look no further. Forget the vinegar, and use Evapo-Rust; gently removes the rust away. Best part: You dont need to purchase multiple gallons; pour one gallon into a 5-gallon bucket, start with the smaller tools first, let it soak in for 10-30 minutes, or even longer if you prefer. Remove tools from bucket, dry them with a rag, and your tools are good as new (figure of speech). One gallon can be reused several times. Once youre done with one round of cleaning your tools, use a funnel and pour the contents back into the 1-gallon jug, and keep for reuse. Dispose the product only after the contents turn sludge-black. One gallon should last you year long, or even longer.

Greater than one weekThis stuff is awesome. I buy a lot of old tools that often need some restoration, and this is how I remove the rust. I keep a plastic storage bin full of the stuff and Just drop in whatever I need to clean, wait until the rust dissolves and wash it off when its done. Its best to remove the worst of the rust with a wire brush before you put it in solution or youll be waiting twice as long. If there are any stubborn spots, just hit it with the wire brush and put it back in solution. Easier than electrolysis and still effective.

Greater than one weekI had a tremendous amount of tools that were rusty. I had inherited them and they were in really bad shape. The ER012 took almost every bit of the rust off. I let them soak over night again and it was amazing how like new they turned out to be. Once I had finished with the tools I tried to strain the Evapo-Rust back into the original container. That did not work well. There was entirely too much debris so it would not stain through. I found the Evapo-Rust to be better than any other rust remover I have ever tried.

> 3 dayThis is the most impressive purchase I have made in a long time. I don’t know how this stuff works, it defies logic. There is no smell, it’s non-toxic, doesn’t foam or hiss... but no matter what I put in my little pan of evaporust, it comes out looking like new. On the deeper rust it leaves behind nothing more than some darker metal, but the rust is literally completely evaporated. As I’m writing this review, I’m walking around my tool shop looking for anything with rust on it just so I can dip it into the stuff, it’s almost addicting to watch. After wiping off any residue, I hit each tool with a drop of machine oil to prevent future rust. Truly incredible.

> 3 dayI love this stuff. Have used itany times over the years and never let me down. I had a bucket of rusted misc hardware that came with an old Jeep CJ project I recently acquired. Bring the hardware hoarder I am, I got myself a fresh gallon and soaked the hardware, no pre washing wire brushing etc. I ended up letting it sit a day or two (forgot about it). I dumped the hardware out and rinsed, let dry....man, awesome results! Ended up being some CJ specific hardware that is a bit hard to find on its own these days.

> 3 dayWorked as advertised. In fact, I cut it 50/50 with water and it still did the trick. Soaking very rusty steel 48 hours brought it down to clean metal. It IS important that the temperature of the bath be above 65 degrees. I tried it out on the carport on a below 60 night and it didnt do much. Brought it inside and it worked fine. Hardest part of using this stuff is finding a container that is well-fitted to your parts. Wasted space means you need more product and its pricey. I took off one star because of the too-high price.
