Is that like eva-poo-rizer, like Jack Black invented? It killed the horse.

I have had excellent results with it. I have even derusted a 32 trunk lock with it. It took off the rust but did not hurt anything including the tiny springs in the lock. It is not powerful as it takes some time and will run out of steam pretty quick. It also evaporates so the container should have a top. I have a rusted up 39 shift top that I am going to do next. I am sure it will get in and free up the plungers.
It may leave some residue. I clean the parts with thinner and spray with WD-40.

I bought a five gallon pail of it and after rebuilding an 8ba (was baked and blasted before rebuild) but before installing it I used a small submergable pump and circulated the EvapoRust through each bank a couple of days each and no side effects but did have a cleaner engine. I like it.

I have used it several times with excellent results. I founf a missing main cap that was buried in the soil when scrounging up a '67 327 block in Kingman, Az. My friend had torn apart the motor, outside, and then left it to the elements . The cap had been buried at least 5 years and it came out like it was brand new! I was at the SEMA show a few years ago and I visited their booth. It sounded like lots of hype at the time but the stuff does everything they say and more. I would recommend it to anyone.
