Usage Instructions
Preparation: Remove large flakes of paint and rust or any oil and grime from the metal surface using a firm wire brush, then rinse with water.
Application:
For small items, submerge the rusty parts completely in the rust remover solution.
For larger parts that cannot be submerged, lay paper towels or rags soaked in the solution over the rusty area. Keep the soaked rags in direct contact with the rust and repeat where necessary.
Dwell Time: Allow the item to soak for between 1 hour and 24 hours, depending on the severity of the rust.
Speeding up the Process:
Occasionally shake the submerged parts.
Heating the solution to 40°C can further speed up the reaction.
