    Radial-
    Here’s a picture of what I made for cleaning legs. The pipe plug is in case it gets tipped over.

    I'm going to find out what happens when you leave something in Evaporust for a month. I forgot I put something in it, and it will be in over a month before I can get it out. Any ideas on what will happen? It's a pair of rusty pliers.

    Link to MSDS for Evaporust. Decide for yourself what it is. Proprietary secret.

    Well, got home last night, pulled out the pliers, and after 31 days in Evaporust, it came out clean. The chrome is still shiny, and the areas where the chrome was gone was black, and had a black putty like substance on it. The black stuff seemed to spread like graphite, very hard to clean it all off. To sum it up, I would say the extra time did not hurt anything.

    I just pulled a leg out of the tube I use. I have not used it for well over a year, so it’s just been sitting.

    I pulled the leg after two days, and the bottom six inches was covered in slime. It looks like the stuff separated. Has anyone else ever seen this? I’m thinking I just have to throw it away and start all over.
