EVAPO-RUSTTM — How does it work?
EVAPO-RUSTTM works through selective chelation. This is a process in which a large synthetic molecule forms a bond with metals and holds them in solution. Most chelating agents bind many different metals. The active ingredient in EVAPO-RUSTTM bonds to iron exclusively. It can remove iron from iron oxide but is too weak to remove iron from steel where the iron is held much more strongly. Once the chelating agent has removed the iron, a sulfur bearing organic molecule pulls the iron away from the chelator and forms a ferric sulfate complex which remains water soluble. This frees the chelating agent to remove more iron from rust.
EVAPO-RUSTTM
Non-harmful rust remover
PERFORMANCE
- Rapidly removes rust from ferrous metal and stainless steel.
- Non-corrosive, non-flammable, non-toxic
- Biodegradable, Contains no VOC’s or HAP’s
- Contains no solvents, acids, bases or hazardous ingredients
- Works at room temperature, requires no special equipment
- Easy and safe to use
- Safe on soft metals, plastic, rubber, PVC and other surfaces unharmed by water alone
- Inhibits rust from reforming for up to 4 weeks
- Will not pit or discolor un-rusted steel
- Patent Pending
DESCRIPTION
EVAPO-RUSTTM has been proven effective to remove even deep rust on all types of mild steel and iron. It is safe on all surfaces and will not harm copper, brass, aluminum, plastic, rubber or vinyl. EVAPO-RUSTTM is non-toxic, non-corrosive, biodegradable and contains no acids or alkalis. It is non-flammable and contains no petroleum solvents.
DIRECTIONS
Pre-clean item to remove oil and dirt. Rinse item and immerse item fully in EVAPO-RUSTTM for 20 minutes. Check progress periodically. Once rust is removed, rinse item with water. To prevent re-rusting simply dip the item back in EVAPO-RUSTTM solution and allow to dry. Deeply rusted parts (5mm or deeper) may require overnight soaking. EVAPO-RUSTTM can be used over and over until performance drops off. When ready to dispose of spent EVAPO-RUSTTM , only the iron content of the solution will dictate disposal method. In most cases, it can be safely put down the drain.
