Rust remover - what's the brand name?

Luke Herzberg

>There was a page in the last FWW about chemical rust removers. Can somebody refresh my memory as to what the names of them were, specifically the one that was cheaper and supposedly worked better?

Thanks,

Luke

There's one called "Bullfrog" that I've used that works very well but leaves a dark 'stain' on the metal. I wouldn't use it on anything you wanted to polish to a bright sheen but it works a wonder on surface rust on old tools.
