Default EvapoRust & Sulu

drac2k,
EvapoRust is good stuff but just remember three things: 1) The item must be completely suspended in the solution (ie in a tank). Any other method (even what is recommended in the EvapoRust literature) runs the risk of etching a pattern in the steel and that pattern will be darn well to completely impossible to remove. 2) Immersion in the solution for any appreciable time (say 24 hrs) will turn the steel a horrible grey which will have to be polished out. 3) EvapoRust works incredibly well on red rust but is only minimally effective on black rust.

Rick,
If Cato's classification can be believed, yes, it's Sulu.

Sincerely,
RobT
