    I think it's important to understand that salt does not make vinegar more acidic. Meaning, the acid concentration (pH) remains the same. However what it does do is convert the acetic acid in the vinegar into hydrochloric acid which is a more reactive acid. That means the acid will react faster at the same temperature but it will still only remove the same amount of rust, given enough time for the reaction to complete.

    You don't need salt. Just some vinegar let it soak over night and next day hose it off. You can continue using the same vinegar eventually it'll get nasty black and stink then just dump it out and get new vinegar.

    ❤❤ soaking the rusty items in regular white vinegar for 2 days and then scrubbing them in a baking soda and water paste before rinsing them with clean water❤ the rust nearly falls off the tool itself❤ can't imagine the salt does much more than be a great abrasive

    Yes it does work but be careful because adding salt to vinegar will remove the paint of your tool. If its black just use white vinegar and it alobe will remove the rust. But if you wanna remove rust and paint down to the bare metal, then add salt to the vinegar. Youre welcome.

    I have found that it removes some rust but not all without multiple soakings in fresh baths. Also it leaves all the metal with a black coating, not shiny as you're hoping for. If you have a swimming pool store close by, you can also buy some pool acid, often referred to as Muratic acid but is also known as Hydrochloric acid. This is extremely strong and you should wear latex gloves and protective glasses when handling it. It will remove the rust much faster than the vinegar/salt mixture. Also using a wire brush to remove as much rust as you can before putting parts into the bath will give you better results.

    Definitely worth knowing about. I bought a washtub with about 80 pounds of badly rusted wrenches in it. I think I'll use rock salt and get maybe 5 gallons of vinegar from Sam's. Beyond a fresh water rinse and light oiling, is there any need to neutralize the acid to prevent further corrosion? I think I remember biblical allusions to salting the land of an enemy to kill its fertility. Are you sure using the solution as a weed killer won't also prevent desirable species from growing? Also, I wonder whether the solution wouldn't remain effective long after it looks dirty. Thanks for posting this video.

    The idea is, salt is an abrasive. it helps to remove the rust. It's also an accelerant TO rust. it promotes it.the chemical reaction you're witnessing is the oxidization of the iron content, and of course the vinegar is eating the micro oxidization. So, essentially, your pitting the crap out of your tools. Just use vinegar, IF your gonna let it soak.

      An interesting note for history: During WWII the Japanese Americans were rounded up and sent to internment camps. One camp in Utah, West of Salt Lake City, East of Wendover was constructed. Though the soil was high salt content, nothing would grow, a resident of the camp approached the keepers and asked if you could plant crops. They agreed knowing it was only futile. This citizen planted a grass for his first plant. A cover crop. What this grass did was extract the salt from the upper layers of the soil. Then he gradually, every season planted a different crop which would be rich in adding nutrients to the soil. Then his agricultural endeavors became a success.

    As I understand it, by adding Salt to the White Vinegar, such makes for Defacto Muratic Acid that will boost the removal of rust. Using heat/ sunlight or a hotplate like for rust removal from small tools or Handguns parts helps as well.
    Like you properly demonstrated, such an operation should be done in an open air environment due to dangerous fumes produced .
    It is a good idea to wear a Respirator Glasses and Gloves while doing this rust removal work.
    I've also seen some people use Baking Soda mixed with White Vinegar, which also seems like an effective rust removal mix for rust on tools and firearms. I do wonder if it would do nothing or help or hurt if one would add Baking soda along with the Salt and White Vinegar mix? I will look further into this.
    Bravo, you really discovered an awesome method to effectively remove rust from steel tools!
