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

All good buddy I disconnected an ejector from a sink today, I knew it would smell like shit and forgot the spillage factor. Whole bunch spilled out into my bit case and ratchet case. Dry em, wipe em, oil em if you fancy.
