We tried out some evapo-rust in the shop. Gotta say this stuff works pretty good. I sense a series comin…. #nowayguy #nowyouknow #lifehack #didyouknow #toolhack
I've been using this stuff for years.. mostly on frames on trucks I restore. Some people spend money on sandblasting but with an air chisel to knock off the big flakes of rust then transfer the evapo rust to a spray bottle and literally soak the frame till it's dripping then sit for a day, then repeat and sit for another day till it looks good. Then I paint the frame and nobody would tell the difference. 👍
@@cummins0328says it’s safe for plastics, which I would imagine means it’s safe for rubber… brake lines are either steel or copper alloy so I don’t imagine it would harm the brake lines other than cleaning the outer surfaces. I’m up in the north east where they salt the roads heavily with that corrosive calcium mixture. I’m about to restore the frame on my pickup, hopefully I’ll be able to find this comment thread again and I’ll let you know how it goes. I’m going to try the evaporust in a spray bottle technique as I’ve heard of it from some other people before.
@MrSagerific95 now that I've seen this I think I'm gonna try it on my 4runner frame before it's too far gone. I plan to do go through it fully this summer to make this truck last. I was told by a welder that did some repairs to it that the collector car guys coat frames in transmission fluid cause it soaks in and stays on well. Maybe another idea instead of painting on e its all cleaned up!
@@Monty87LS good luck. It’s good to see other people putting in the work to make something good last instead of just throwing it away. I’ve heard of the transmission fluid technique as well and spraying used motor oil/ and gear oil mixture. I could see how the transmission fluid would soak in better because it’s more viscous. Personally I like to paint chassis parts with rustoleum brushed on for maximum thickness. I’ve done a ton of axles with it and some parts of some frames, the “rusty metal primer” seems to hold up really well to salt. Plus the best part is you can just touch it up with a rattle can if it gets scratched… I completely gave up on wool wax or fluid film because you have to reapply 2-3 times a year if you drive in rain.
Holy shit this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Was going to sandblast but this sounds way easier. Gal might have some more life in her! Thank you!
I used Evapo Rust to restore antique door locks and handles in my house. Stuff worked great AND I got to keep using antique original items for my house.
For cheap rust removal simply put your rusty crap in a bucket of distilled vinegar and allow to sit for 5 to 10 days and rinse with water works great for adjustable tools jacks whatever you can think of
Dude you need to be watching Hand Tool Rescue, your fellow Canadian. He practically drinks Evaporust. It works as well as they say and lasts forever and is not caustic.
Coca Cola has phosphoric acid which also works. Of course if you are thirsty then you have to decide. Evap rust is great I use it on my pliers that I forget outside sometimes.
It works, you have to get heavy rust of first great for surface rust, but you jave to wash off and put a protectanant on or else the parts will re-rust quickly.
It's always funny to watch people's reactions discovering this stuff. It's been around for years and works extremely well, surprisingly it doesn't have much word of mouth sharing about to others.
Oh nice! I bought a gallon of that shit years ago to fix some rust scale on the inside of a fuel tank I was gonna swap into my car but was too lazy to ever get around to it. Maybe now I will...
It’s excellent stuff, does what it says on the tub….But….it does leave a black finish which can be left black if required, or easily removed with a wire brush, which does defeat the object a little… If anyone knows of an easy way to remove the black coating. Please let me know… Much better than vinegar (acid) which dissolves the steel… Only down side is the price, but it can be re-used…how many times, I’ve yet to find out..
And Dirty Down Rust puts it back on 😂 Joke got my mech mate with it on his files, its water soluable model paint that looks AWESOME. Great practical joke tho, had him going for 5 mins solid before he realised it was washing off with his sweaty palms 🤣🔥
That’s because to you it’s unorganized. To him, its may look like a mess, but he knows where things are. Because he put it there. Example. Have you ever had someone clean your room? Besides a hotel. The person cleaning doesn’t necessarily know how you like things. My cousin had offered to clean my room for me one time. I said sure. The next day I couldn’t find anything.
So I bought a bucket of this after this video,, haven't used it yet.. I have a couple rifles that were in a flood in my basement that I want to try it on but it will also take off all the bluing I'm told.. ffs ..., know anyone who can re- blu ??? 🤦♂️🤷🏼♂️
It’s not pro-ject two words , it’s project one word, I’m from the south it’s not brand new it’s called goodier 😂, I ❤videos makes me say the same no way
