Here is another DIY Quick Tip: How to remove rust from old tools with white vinegar, baking soda, and a wire brush. If you have or come across old tools, they typically have rust on them. Here is one way to remove rust, clean the tools, and protect them. Here's what to do:

• Add some baking soda and give the container a shake.
• Allowing a couple of hours or overnight soaking remove the tools.
