    When I worked in a gas station back in the 60's, a co-worker and I opened a bottle of Coke and put a penny in the bottle. After 4 days, we checked to see what was happening. The penny was corroded and starting to dissolve. Maybe if you would have brushed the items after a few minutes rather than let them sit, it may have removed some of the rust. Just a thought.

  • @oldmanfromscenetwentyfour8164

    You will still have to do some sort of scrub down, coke doesn't make it disappear. Even if you were to soak all the tools in a chemical de-ruster, you'd still need to do a scrub down.
    You expected too much.

    A friend once had a 39 Plymouth,bought with a rebuilt engine that had sat unoiled. The piston rings had seized to the cyl walls so bad that wd40 and a 1/2 inch breaker bar wouldn't break it loose.The bar slipped and my friend broke his knee.We broke the motor loose with Coke.It does indeed work.

  • @techykun
    @techykun Před 9 lety +15

    Coke or in this case diet coke (doesn't sticky like regular coke) is a de-ruster but it's not a leave it in deruster, you have to scrub the rust off with a aluminum foal because it's a soft embrasive and not a major embrasive like a brisol pad and you pour the coke onto the rust and not leave it in. Coke is high on citric acid which is a type of acid that is partially strong but not too strong like the acidic apple cidar vinegar. Apple cidar vinegar in my case isn't good to use because of the smell, to those who don't balance their PH levels in their skin this is a warning once you touch or
    Dip your acidy skin onto acidy apple cidar vinegar you'll be in a lot of pain.

  • @davidcarmichael8394
    @davidcarmichael8394 Před 8 lety

    the ones that have turned black have had a good transformation, the black stuff is Iron Phosphates, the white stuff you are seeing is because some parts were greasy when submerged, but generally its a good outcome. Trouble is, now they have had the phosphoric acid treatment what are you going to do now to stop them rusting again. I think would be best to degrease using dishwashing liquid and hot water, rinse and place in acid used by bricklayers. Use rubber gloves and eye protection, and rinse after use. Perhaps then dip in a good oil to stop immediate rust commencement once more.

    • @Corieorieorie
      @Corieorieorie Před 7 lety +3

      not true , Its known that in order for the rusticol particles to be removed the iron phosphate has to generate heat therefore causing a chemical malfunction which leads to rust growing in the corner and your still reading this shit I have no idea ha

  • @bryandanish9514
    @bryandanish9514 Před 3 lety

    First of all it does de rust and the fact you left it in for a few days is your problem. You allowed the sugar to settle and reattach itself to the metal. But it goes to show how lazy you are and how much you understand elemental change along with the adding and subtracting of elements. If you were smart you would have cleaned them at least 12-24 hours after you started. Then repeated your process for another day then scrubbed away all the rest of the rust. But the coke method is not supposed to take away the rust entirely but only enough so that the product being cleaned is reusable.
