Hydrogen peroxide, citric acid and salt

Pour 300 ml of hydrogen peroxide into a container with water, add 80 g of citric acid and 15 g of salt. The salt should dissolve well, so mix the ingredients thoroughly.

Dip the rusty object into the solution and wait a few hours. You may notice that the solution darkens and starts to foam. This is proof that the rust is coming off.

Experts say that the reaction will occur when the temperature of the solution reaches about 60 °C.

The rust residue should be cleaned with baking soda mixed to a paste with water. The rusty object is rubbed with a brush.

You can also add salt to the vinegar and apply the mixture on the rust. Wait for a little while for the acid to take effect. Then rub gently with a sponge, rinse and dry. Always rinse well after the rust has dissolved, as vinegar residue can damage the metal.
