Rust is a serious problem, so it is worth starting to fight it as early as possible.

In this case, home methods that do not require much effort or investment will help.

It is quite easy to overcome rust if the affected item can be removed, soaked in a special solution, and then cleaned. But you are not always so lucky. In this case, salt and lemon will come to the rescue.

How to use them correctly?

First, the surface affected by rust should be rubbed with salt, which is pre-moistened with a small amount of water. In this case, it will be possible to fix it in the right place.

Let's wait for about 10 minutes.

Then take a lemon and squeeze a couple of spoons of juice out of it. Pour the resulting liquid over the rust. Now you need to wait two hours.

After that, you need to take a comfortable brush and start removing plaque.

If there are no citrus fruits, you can use citric acid. One packet will be enough. It should also be diluted in a small amount of water beforehand.

This procedure is completely safe and effective.
