Conductor562 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks guys I guess I was successful in getting you guys set up to view them. I go through at least twice a year and clean up, remove any rust (there is very rarely any), and give every hand tool I have a coat of Liquid Wrench Silicone spray. Anything that's worn is fixed or replaced. My bi-annual tool maintenance projects usually take 2 or 3 days to complete, but its well worth it. I try to do it before summer and before winter.Post em up guys. Lets see yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter4187 Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Do you just grind off the rust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Do you just grind off the rust?For light rust I usually use a small wire brush. For heavier rust I use a wire wheel attached to my drill press, being as gentle as I can in both cases. For Chrome tools I use Evapo-Rust. It's a liquid you soak them in overnight and works great without scratching it all up. Google Evapo-Rust and check it out. It's a little expensive, but it is reusable.

firefighter4187 Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Also Conductor does it affect the grips on the tools when you soak them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Also Conductor does it affect the grips on the tools when you soak them?No. Evapo-Rust is pretty great stuff. It removes rust without harming the grips or the chrome. I soaked a pair of pliers for 3 days without harm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FerTheHandyman Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 I wish I could keep them that organized but I always end up throwing them in my truck for a job and throwing them back anywhere in the garage when I'm done only to load diffrent tools for a diffrent job. A never ending battle trying to keep them organized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conductor562 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Can't see you're pics Chase, but it may be because I'm on my mobile. I've been buying tools for 15 years and still buy something every payday. If I live to be 100 I'll still be buying tools. Once you get all your basics bought you can start buying vintage tools, lol. Old Plomb, Proto, Blackhawk, and New Britain are what I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
