Knock to loosen rusty screws and nuts
In the process of using screws and nuts, if the rust is not very serious, and it is the kind of larger screws and nuts, we can use the method of knocking to loosen the screws and nuts. In the actual operation, one hand holds a wrench to fix the screw, the other hand holds a hammer to knock the tail of the wrench, you can first small strength knock. If still can not twist, then appropriately increase the strength, remember to be careful when using force. If you are not experienced, you can knock slowly to avoid hurting your hand.
Just do it a few more times, and then twist it with the wrench. If it comes loose, you can unscrew the nut. This method not only keeps the screw intact, but it is also very fast.
Use carbonated drinks to remove rust stains.
Spray carbonated beverage onto rusty screws or nuts to remove rust. The principle is that carbonated drinks contain carbonic acid, and the carbonic acid is able to react with the iron oxide in the rust, in the process of reaction rust will gradually disappear or be softened, and the screws and nuts will not be rusted. This method may be slow, you can prepare a spray can to keep spraying and use a wrench gently back and forth to try to loosen it.
Just keep spraying for a few minutes, and it will be ok. If the rust is severe, it will need to be extended. After unscrewing, remember to rinse off carbonated drinks with water or replace the screws, otherwise, they will easily continue to rust if used again.
Alcohol + white vinegar + dishwashing liquid to remove rust stains.
Add the right amount of water to the bottle, then pour in two caps of alcohol, two caps of white vinegar, and two caps of dishwashing liquid, and shake evenly. Pour some onto the screws, let them sit for a few minutes, and then gently twist with a wrench to loosen the rusty screws instantly and remove them effortlessly.
This method is similar to carbonated drinks, in fact, it also plays a role in the reaction with iron oxide. You can also mix the three and spray them directly in a watering can, using the same speed and method as with fizzy drinks. This method is the most suitable for rusty screws and nuts that are common at home. We can unscrew the screws with little effort.
