Seized Rust Solution? Sunroof cables, etc. anyone tried Evapo Rust?

[ *** I posted this to someone with a similar issue but might help here]

Have never seen this posted but has anyone tried Evapo Rust on Amazon?

** Idea: Plug the drain holes and flood the sunroof tray with this stuff. It may dissolve the rust in an hour or so. Then lube it like crazy. This stuff is pretty incredible for the things I’ve dropped into the solution. Just dissolves it

Make sure you it doesn’t leak into your cabin, but if it does I think it’s water soluble.

It maybe worth the $17 before doing a tear down. And it is reusable!

I have a gallon and haven’t had time to do this myself but posting here before anyone tears apart their headliner and order $$$ parts.



Good luck.

I've used it as well but not on a vehicle. It does remove rust without damaging the metal itself.

I have about 50 gallons of this stuff at my work. It works great. It does not harm paint but it will remove zinc coating from hardware. I always mechanically remove as much rust as possible before placing parts in the solution. For me, evaporust is the last step in rust removal. I would clean off all loose rust and grind down as much of it as possible, then place in the solution to remove any remaining rust from the pitted metal. It sometimes takes days to really strip all rust. I wish it worked in an hour like you’re hoping! Good luck.
