How to remove Rust: Step-by-Step Guide

1. Preparation

Before applying the gel, clean the surface to remove loose rust particles using a wire brush.

2. Apply the Gel

Using a brush, apply the gel liberally to the rust area and work into the surface.

3. Allow the Gel to Work

Allow the gel to work for at least 15 minutes. It will start to break down the rust and show a visible difference. For very rusty items, the gel can be left on for up to 3 hours, but please ensure it doesn’t dry out or become tacky during this time.

4. Wipe Off

Once the gel has done its job, simply wipe away the residue with a cloth. The rust should come off easily, revealing the clean, rust-free metal beneath.

5. Finishing Touches

After the rust is removed, dry the metal item thoroughly and consider applying a protective coating or sealant to prevent future rusting.
