    I found a diluted solution of phosphoric acid gets rid of all the
    rust 'it just bubbles away in front of your eyes' leaving a
    phosphate coating on the tool that just does not rust- oil afterwards
    it is slightly textured (non slip) - sharp edges need honing again
    tools that very rarly get used Icover with a coating of 3M Inner
    Cavity wax rust protector and leave em in a rag. GETS A BIY STICKY
    BUT A FEW WIPES AND SOME SOLVENT gets them right as rain again. i
    live 100 yds from the sea major rust.
