How to remove rust from tools
Your hand and power tools may be stored in a secure garage, workshop or shed but they’re not immune to rust. So, if you’ve found orange-brown specks and are wondering how rust developed on your expensive equipment, it’s likely something to do with the humidity or lack of insulation in the room.
