Peter, could that possibly be the same stuff as Ospho?  Usually comes in a 
one gallon plastic bottle, bluish in color.  It's one of the acids, maybe 
diluted hydrochloric?  I'm not sure.  If you have something that's really 
rusty, this stuff attacks the rust making it inert, turning it both black, 
and sort of a white powder.  It's a primer also.  Good stuff, just have to 
use the usual cautions.  However, this may not be what you're looking for.

have been trying to get get Evaporust: maybe the worst distribution sytem 
for any product I have ever encountered. The so- called distributor in 
Connecticut currently stocks exactly one five-gallon pail, which may or may 
not still be there if I make the trip, and can't tell me if or where its 
retailed. Neither can the Mfr. Only refers me back to the CT distributor. I 
understand that for squeaky clean rust removal, its the stuff to use: anyone 
know where I can get it in New England? Or if there is another chelating 
agent available that is a decent substitute?

thanks
