How do you remove rust from guitar hardware?
The easiest way to remove rust from your guitar parts is to simply soak them in white vinegar. Use a container that is big enough for the parts you need to soak and submerge them in white vinegar for three to four hours. Remove each part from the white vinegar bath and gently scrub off the rust with a shop cloth.
How do you get rust off rusty screws?
All you have to do is make a paste of water and baking soda in a bowl and make sure it's neither too thick nor too runny. Apply the paste to the rusted nut and leave it for a few hours. Use a toothbrush to scrub the paste off. This will also take the rust off, along with the paste.
How do you remove rust from guitar strings?
Spray the surface of the strings with a commercially available guitar string cleaner such as those available from Planet Waves, GHS or Fender. Rub the length of the strings with a microfiber cloth to remove the rust stains from the strings. The strings will dry off quickly so add more spray as needed.
