A practical approach to rusty cutlery
By GB Blog Official 2018-07-03 1733 1
As we all know, the kitchen is often humid, and the cutlery may be left wet or damp for a long period of time and may often go rusty. Rust occurs when metal is exposed to damp air and it can weaken metal tablewares.
5 tips help you remove rust from cutlery
Many people don't treat their knives with any special care. They throw them in the dishwasher, toss them in a drawer with all the other tools and don't keep them properly sharpened.
Here are some practical e useful tips to help and just a few common things needed.
1. White Vinegar
Place the rusty cutlery in the vinegar (do not add water), soak it for 30 minutes. Wipe down each piece of cutlery with a damp cloth to remove any residual rust. Rinse with warm water to remove the vinegar, then let it dry.
2. Salt + Lemon Juice
Sprinkle liberally with salt and pour lemon juice into the dish, enough to cover the cutlery. 2 hour later, scrub it with a mesh scrubber to remove all of the rust. Rinse well with warm water, and dry with a clean cloth.
3. Baking Soda
Add 1 tsp. of baking soda into hot water - soak the knives for about 30 minutes - rinse in cold water - let dry naturally - buff the cutlery once it's dry.
4. Toothpaste
Dampen the silverware - apply non-gel toothpaste to a soft toothbrush gently scrub - rinse thoroughly in cold water - let dry naturally - buff the cutlery.
5. Lighter Fluid
Because it's not environmentally friendly, lighter fluid should be your last option. It is, however, very effective when removing rust from stainless steel. Pour a little on a clean rag and wipe down rusting stainless steel. Be sure to rinse the flatware well after a lighter fluid treatment and properly dispose the rag.
