Rust remover

[Lt Visser]

I did alot of experiments with different acids and rust removers that you can buy over the counter.

At last I found what I was looking for....a gentle rust remover that is not dangerous to yourself, any paintwork and prevent rust to build up again (contains lead)....

PM me to get info on this item, I can't publish the producers name..

OK, I'll go to the post office tomorrow to find out how much the shiping will be. If anyone want to try this stuff, I'll buy it and post it to you.... Let me know if you are interested.....

do you reckon it would work on lids as well without damaging the paint ?????

[Lt Visser]

Well, I've used it on one of my gasmask tins and worked excellent! I've been using this stuff for some time now and never saw it attacking paint. I even put some on the filter of the gasmask and it removed the rust that was under the WaA stamp without removing the stamp...

I'll post a pic......

So I believe it will work on the helmet. I don't know about the decal thou, if you have a old lid you can try the decal.

NickD,
Check this..............:

On the mortar I only put the rust remover partially so that you can see the difference clearer. (the text is not smudged, the camera is out of focus...) If you look at the gasmask tin, you can see that the colour is even better after removing all the rust

Ok, 15 Euro for 200 ml. You go a long way with 200 ml.

Hi NickD,
