WD-40 Specialist® Rust Remover Soak – 1 Gallon
Safe, Acid-Free Rust Dissolver for Tools, Equipment & Metal Parts
Quickly and safely remove rust from metal surfaces with WD-40 Specialist® Rust Remover Soak—a powerful, non-acidic rust dissolver that restores rusty tools, auto parts, farm equipment, chrome, cast iron, and more to bare metal without the need for scraping, chipping, or scrubbing.
This ready-to-use, 1-gallon rust soak works fast—removing light rust in 1–3 hours or heavy rust overnight. Unlike harsh chemical formulas, it’s non-irritating to skin, contains no toxic fumes, and is acid- and caustic-free, making it safe to use in enclosed workspaces and around painted or delicate areas (just avoid using it on blued, browned, or oxide-coated parts).
