In a recent overhaul of an engine driven welder salvaged from the floods of Helene, I have dunked every conceivable part into this magic liquid. Bolts come out a sparkling steel grey. I dunked a whole starter in it and removed the rust completely allowing me to salvage the component. Engine ducts, carburetor, stator, coils, it doesn’t matter. Everything comes off with a good rinse with plain water and a very small amount of scrubbing. It’s magic! Review: I HATE writing reviews BUT...... - This stuff is nothing short of Awesome!!!! If you are lazy or don't have time to spend hours sanding off rust, this is your answer. I have written maybe 3 reviews my entire life and this stuff is worthy of a review!!! I use it for removing the rust off old weights from bench press sets, works like a charm. Only thing is it takes time, don't think you will take off 20yrs of rust in two minutes, give it 12-24hrs (depends on how bad the rust) and it will come out looking like new! I buy the 5gallon size and boy do I need it, it says you can reuse it over and over but each time you use it, you will notice it takes a little longer to work, after about three heavy uses (massive rusted parts filled to the top of the bucket) it slows down significantly and the product at least in my instance turns black (probably from the paint on the weights i suspect) As far as paint is concerned yes it kinda takes it off a little?? but its seriously is hard to tell because there is so much rust on these weights thats I'm not sure how much black paint was initially there to begin with. It seems to really just attack the rust. Oh and its seems ridiculously safe very low oder but i will say it kinda has a very faint sulfur (rotten egg) smell but like i said very faint and hardly noticeable (also one of the weights got away from me and splashed in the bucket and this stuff went everywhere including my face and nothing at all happen just wiped it of and went on about my business). Yellowish, like a crappy beer, in color. Also whats great about this stuff is you can just leave you project in there as long as you want 2, 3 even 4 days no adverse effects once the rust is removed it just will sit there waiting for your next project, and it will leave the unrusted bare metal alone. Do yourself a favor and buy big!!! If your like me you will start to find tons of metal tools and the like around the house that have rust on it. PS you will need to dunk, at least the rusted area, and leave it submerged, for a significant amount of time so this stuff is NOT good for tables and chairs and the very large objects. ## Features - 71 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00370N1UG | | Allergen Information | Allergen-Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #14,541 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #64 in Care Corrosion & Rust Inhibitors | | Brand | Evapo-Rust | | Brand Name | Evapo-Rust | | Cleaning Agent Formulation | Stain Remover | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 906 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00899303000059 | | Included Components | Evapo-Rust The Original Heavy Duty Rust Remover, Water-based, 5 Gallons | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Type Name | Evapo-Rust The Original Heavy Duty Rust Remover, Water-based, 5 Gallons | | Item Volume | 5 gallons | | Item Weight | 45 pounds | | Manufacturer | Evapo-Rust | | Material Feature | Biodegradable | | Material Features | Biodegradable | | Material Type Free | Acid Free | | Model Number | ER013 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Interchange Info | ER013 | | Part Number | ER013 | | Scent | Unscented | | Size | 640 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Non-Toxic, Biodegradable, Reusable | | Special Ingredients | Water-based, Acid-free | | Specific Uses For Product | Rust Remover | | Surface Recommendation | Steel, Iron | | UPC | 899303000059 | | Unit Count | 640 Fluid Ounces | | Warranty Description | Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Evapo-Rust - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Material Feature:** Biodegradable - **Scent:** Unscented - **Specific Uses For Product:** Rust Remover ## Images ![Evapo-Rust CRC Heavy Duty Rust Remover for Metal and Tools - 5 Gallon - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71yR1lOIDrL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Edition** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: would it be safe to dip like the whole rim in it? or will it mess up anything?** A: Perfectly safe to soak a rim or any metal in for days on end. I soaked a complete stator assy from a motorcycle and it cleaned up beautifully. Worked like new when dried and installed too. **Q: How many times can you submerge an item in this and still use it again? Just looking for an estimate....** A: I've gone through about 20 gallons over the past year, cleaning about 2,000 hand tools, ranging from 1.5mm Allen wrenches on up to pruners and framing squares, which I suppose averages out to about 100 tools per gallon. But it really does depend on the heaviness of the rust to start with. I usually use as little as I can: I find a flat-bottomed container of the right size and then just put in enough to cover the tools; using that method, I can usually reuse that small batch for three or four sets of tools before it becomes too black and 'loaded' with rust to use. At that point it seems to be putting more rust on than it takes off. **Q: after using this product and yes it works exellent can i pour it down the sink after using it. how do i dispose of this product ?** A: It is non-toxic and biodegradable, it could be poured down the drain. **Q: What is the shelf life after opening and using?** A: Open and unused at least a couple months. I never had it longer without using it. Used depends on what you de-rusted. I usually get a few uses, especially with small parts. Do keep it sealed, in use or not, it will evaporate. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WITCHCRAFT *by S***. on July 26, 2026* In lesser times a man would have been charged with witchcraft or accused of alchemy for what this product can do!

Best part is you can keep on using it over and over. Most people that need to remove rust are aware that if you don't protect your newly on rusted item it will rust again. Follow directions by cleaning your parts and applying rust inhibitor or proper primer and finish. I purchased this 5 gallon to restore a big CNC machine that was left to rust for years and I have this machine looking like it did when it was purchased. I took off the screws and bolts and just left them to dip overnight then put them back on or spray them with rustoleum Black rust converter and it is amazing what you can do in a short amount of time if you use it properly. This is another item I wish I would have known years ago how good it works but it's only made for items that you can dip and leave sitting in the solution so don't expect to take a vehicle and drop it into this 5 gallon bucket. ## Frequently Bought Together - Evapo-Rust The Original Heavy Duty Rust Remover, Water-based, 5 Gallons - Evapo-Rust RB018 Rust-Block Water-Based Rust Inhibitor – 5 Gallon, Corrosion Inhibitor, 12 oz Aerosol Spray, Gray --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/7111984-evapo-rust-crc-heavy-duty-rust-remover-for-metal-tools](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/7111984-evapo-rust-crc-heavy-duty-rust-remover-for-metal-tools) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-08-28*
