How Do You Remove Rust And Corrosion?
• Define exactly the material of your object. This can be obvious, but most of the mistake came from obvious think. An iron object or steel object will develop rust on large extent of the surface. Iron is magnetic, so it will attract a magnet. This is a simple method to distinguish between iron and stainless steel. Stainless Steel will develop very small, localized, red spot. Silver will develop the typical black patina.’; } s += “”; document.write(s); return; } google_ad_channel = ‘+7733764704+1640266093+9503394424+7416705818+8388126455+8941458308+9683278076+7122150828’ + xchannels + gchans; google_ad_client = “pub-9543332082073187”; google_ad_output = ‘js’; google_ad_type = ‘text’; google_feedback = ‘on’; google_ad_region = “test”; google_ad_format = ‘250x250_as’; //–> • Note that there are several methods to remove rust and corrosion products: • Mechanical methods such as grinding, blasting • Chemicals such as acids, gel • Rust converter — this will not remove the corrosion product

Make your choice. The final choice is a function of different factors: • Extent of the surface to be treated: using chemical of electrolysis for very large
