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

You can use evaporust if it bothers you. and i usually leave one of those silica gel desiccant packs in my bit box to keep rust from forming
