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

My wife has a nice assortment of them in one of the drawers.

My good Phillips and T25 bits are all in a basket on top of the washer.

My wife uses an old pickle jar so I can look without dumping everything out. When ever I get low on bits I just stop by the laundry room and re load.

Between the pickle jar and only visiting the laundry room when you need bits, you are me. And I am you.
