Description

Gel Rust Dissolver sticks to large surfaces to dissolve rust...no need to submerge the metal

  • Ideal for roofs, deck lids, hoods, frame rails and more
  • Simply wire-brush off loose rust and scale, then apply gel with a brush
  • Penetrates deep into the metal, dissolving rust in just a few hours

Eastwood's Gel Rust Dissolver harnesses the powerful rust-dissolving properties of our popular liquid rust dissolver and puts them into a sticky gel, so no submersing is needed!



Eastwood's Gel Rust Dissolver harnesses the powerful rust-dissolving properties of our popular liquid rust dissolver and put them into a clinging gel. This tacky gel adheres to large surfaces and dissolves rust without having to submerse the metal in a tub or bucket. Ideal for roofs, deck lids, hoods, frame rails and more. Eastwood's Gel Rust Dissolver is easy to use: simply wire-brush off the loose rust and scale, and then apply the gel with a brush; it penetrates deep into the metal, dissolving the rust overnight. (Can also be used with submersion if desired.) If you're going to top-coat the surface, we recommend first using our 10041Z PRE Painting Prep to remove any residual dissolver.



Gentle enough for use on engine parts; harmless to copper, brass, aluminum, solder, lead, plastic, rubber, wood and vinyl.

Customer Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Rust dissolver I diluted a batch of 4 to 1 and the results were amazing. I did no pre-cleaning or anything to see how 40+ years of rust would come up and even being diluted it all came up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This stuff works ! Period ! I watched a video on YouTube comparing rust removers, and this product came out on top, So I purchased some. The outcome was just as advertised, this absolutely does the job. I was so impressed that I could not wait to remove the pieces of metal, just to be so surprised each time. I am used to working my butt off with removal of rust, but this was so satisfying, it’s hard to believe. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Questions & Answers

I used this product to remove rust from some old nuts and bolts and they have become copper plated. why?

Asked by: Algy
Some manufacturers use copper plating as an intial plating step, to obtain better adhestion of the next coating, in a longer series of layered plating steps. I suspect your bolts lost the outer plating coating(s) and were left with (some of) the original copper plating coat after rust removal cleaning. Unsure how that coating would then behave soaking in rust remover.

Hi, will your product work on a gun without removing the blueing?

Asked by: Tzp50
If the gun blue is rust based ("rust bluing", a somewhat lengthy process) then essentially all rust disolvers will remove the gun bluing along with the other rust. Evapo-rust product will remove gun blue also. Is why gunsmiths have hot salt bluing tanks and or hot boxes to reblue rusted guns. The latter (salt solution/ hot box/ rust bluing) you can do yourself if you are careful. Google it. Some antique machinist tools were blued and essentially all rust removers will remove that bluing down to metal as well.

I have a perimeter wall around my community. Te stucco band has corner beads that are totally rusting out. Is there something I can do to solidify the rust and paint over it instead of having to remove the stucco band and apply vinyl cornet beads. Really

Asked by: Phil D
Eastwood offers several product that will remove and neutralize rust like our Fast Etch(19415ZP) and our Platinum Rust Encapsulator(16258ZP). these product will do the job for you. The only problem I can foresee would be if the rust is coming from the back side of the metal corner beading as there would be not way to treat that area which in time could cause the rust to return.

I have a Dewalt titanium coated drill bet set that got wet. All the bits have spot rust. Will this remover damage the titanium coating if I soak them?

Asked by: Mike
This is an acid based product and may damage Aluminum or Plated surfaces. The Titanium coating on your drill bits is a type of Plating. It is recommended to test this product in an inconspicuous location to determine the effect on your item.

I want to remove rust from an old bicycle, chain, sprockets, gears, wheels, handlebars, etc. Can I just spray on the gel instead of having to take everything off?

Asked by: Billy
If you plan on keeping all of the pieces on the bike we would recommend using the gel and wrapping something around it so the gel can eat the rust away.

What effect does this product have on wood? I am looking for a solution for rust removal from antiue bayonets, if I can safely immerse the whole bayonet including the wooden scales on the grip my life would be much easier. Thank you

Will it remove rust under paint or do I need to completely sand off the paint?
