Default How do I get rid of rust stains?

We have rust marks on our foundation and a little on the vinyl siding from the sprinklers. What is the best way to clean it off?

That what I was thinking as well, chuck. You'll have to be careful using it around vegetation, though - either protect it or rinse it well or both!

Super Iron Out does come in an "Outdoor" version as well.

Default Outdoor rust stains

Color Wheel recommended MAGIK. I tried it and it is remarkable. Just spray on. Rust disappears immediately. Wash off with hose and your rust stain problem is gone.

Default Be Careful

Super Iron Out is Great-

However be careful not to breath that stuff in. It will snuff out the Rust and your Lungs at the same time.

Wear Gloves and as Bill say's dilute with water around vegetation.
