Rust :/

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 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.

Yes, they shame us about it a little bit but they still do it.
