Thats a must! If you do not screen out the rust particles that have fallen into the mixture the product continues to work and will break down the PH even sooner. Same goes for getting your parts as clean as possible before you soak them.

We use evaporust on a regular basis, to clean light surface rust on parts and sheet metal.

I have used evaporust for over two years. Works excellent.Purchased a 55 gallon drum over a year ago and its still going strong.The big thing is to keep grease/oil out of it and do a quick sand blast before. It has had engine blocks,heads,rear ends,sheet metal,steering boxes.rotors,intakes in it.I think every piece of my ta has been it at one time. John

I think Rick's message is the key. I've used it but if I leave it sit after one use, it goes to pot on it's own. That's a major waste of money. Once it turns black, it's no good at all.
