generic evaporust
 

Here is generic evaporust. $60 including shipping to make 16 gallons or $5 a gallon. Also tried another generic rustdepot. Both work the same as evaporust $25 a gallon. It is also better in that you can mix up more concentrated and it works faster. I also use ospho but it leaves a residue. I got into using evaporust when I needed to free up a frozen 36 glove box hinge. Ospho wouldn't have worked but evaporust did very well! It is still sort of a specialty product as it is not good at taking off really heavy rust. I soaked my 49 woodie rear hatch in evaporust and it didn't make much difference. The ospho ate some holes in the hatch but it only eats rust after all! I'll have to patch the holes.

That's good news and should make derusting gas tanks and engine cooling systems much more affordable.

It's available at Amazon.com but comes out to ~ $12/gal http://www.amazon.com/Rust911-Remove...words=rust+911

Or buy direct; http://www.rust911.com and get the 1 gallon size for $60. Works out to ~$3.75/gal

With my mentality it would still be $60 a gallon. If diluted is good concentrated is better right......:D:D

Too concentrated and there is not enough water to carry away the dissolved rust. Recommended is 8 ounces per gallon. I've used up to 2x as much and it works faster.

I paid $82 for enough to make 10 gallons before I knew about the $60 for 16 gallons. Works the same. I also bought evaporust for $25 a gallon before I knew about generic.
