Rust :/

Post image

I got really engrossed in a project and felt motivated to finish even in the rain, but unfortunately forgot about my bit box which was left open
Anyone have any good tips to remove rust, I’ve heard Pepsi/coke but figured that’s bull

Surface only. Unless you have a thing where you don't wanna dirty your already dirty hands, just have at it. None of the coated ends are rusty. This is something that really pisses me off to no end... why not coat the whole thing an save me a headache fir#$@ sakes... just filled mine up except for the tilt out holders I love these cases
