Lodge Rust Eraser

Works great for what is meant to do

AFTER spending 45 minutes cleaning up my rusty Tuscan grill with a wire wheel on an angle grinder I was reviewing how to re-season cast iron on the lodge website and I saw this. Sounded useful, so I bought one: it's an incredible tool! I could have cleaned the grill faster with this!! (And a whole lot safer and quieter!). I also touched up the lid of one of my Lodge Dutch oven. Quick and easy, like erasing pencil with a rubber eraser, or using a pumice stone on a swimming pool. Yes, it is consumed slowly, but not that quickly; it appears to be a hard rubber bar containing an abrasive. After removing surface rust, the iron appears all fresh and new, ready for re-seasoning as indicated. My hobby is metalworking, and I have spent many hours de-rusting iron and steel over the years, using everything from phosphoric acid to power tools, and for a small job (like a pot or grill) this is just the ticket! So easy to use, just rub it on the metal! This is absolutely a five-star product!

This powerful solution is a game-changer for anyone looking to restore the shine and functionality of their beloved cast iron pans and pots. I recently discovered Lodge Rust Remover, and it’s been a lifesaver for reviving my old and neglected cookware. With just a few simple steps, this solution effortlessly removes rust, baked-on food residue, and other tough stains, leaving my cast iron looking as good as new. What I love most about Lodge Rust Remover is its effectiveness and ease of use. Simply apply the solution to the affected areas, let it work its magic for a short period, and then scrub away the rust and grime with ease. The results are truly impressive – my cookware looks restored to its former glory with minimal effort required. Not only does Lodge Rust Remover excel in performance, but it’s also safe and environmentally friendly. Made from biodegradable ingredients, it’s a responsible choice for those conscious of their environmental impact.

I bought that item with (kind of) no expectation. It work very well for what I needed it for. Even try with an old iron cookie sheet and it took the small rusty spot with ease.

Although I'm usually very careful to keep my Lodge cast iron properly seasoned I did find that when I stored some pans in a closed cupboard with very little air circulation a few rust spots appeared on one or two of my pans. This eraser is great for removing these and with a quick rub down of grapeseed oil and a hour in the oven at 240c (465F) the rust disappeared. Have since moved my pans to a heavy duty steel racking system that stands in the open in my kitchen. The eraser won't get used that often but it will be my first port of call if required.
