I thought we just did this last week. Maybe I'm just getting senile. Anyway, I really think we did answer this a week or so ago and the answer was TSP. 1 to 2 Tablespoons per gallon of water. TSP is Tri Sodium Phosphate. Regards (again) L.O.L., Tom From:

If you're going to paint it, all you can do is sand or grind the rust away. Make sure to clean it before painting with some sort of de-greaser like mineral spirits or equivalent. Use this after the rust is removed. - Original Message - From: frank cunningham To: blind

It's still out there. A company named Duro, the Lock Tight people, also made something that kind of smothered rust when it was applied. If you have a bad case of rust, and it's not on something fine like a table saw, look online at automotive restoration places. They are the ones that deal
