Did you get it off with formic acid?
Citric acid and a toothbrush. Although I left it in a bit longer than planned.
Decided to fix some 180 to my work mate which made better progress on the back. So will try and have another sesh on that then go back to the whetstone.
Not sure why I'm bothering. Would be quicker to drive to Screwfix.
Everything steel looks better without rust, unless you’re a steampunk fan. Did you get it off with formic acid? Wild guess based on the finish.
