It pretty much acid etched them. Have to oil them right away but it will pull rust off without being abrasive to them with brushes

IDK, I have a firewood customer that collects cast iron cookware. He says the best thing he has found for rusty pan resto is the cheapest spaghetti sauce on the shelf.

I know it worked on my mom's copper bottom pans back in the day. Obviously the acidic nature of the tomatoes is what is eating the iron oxide.

I've seen spaghetti sauce mess up a good seasoned Dutch oven once.

@beaglebriar did this awhile back. Maybe he can chime in and share his experience with it.
Yeah it works awesome. Just need a battery charger, washing soda a sacrificial piece of steel and some patience.

Turned an old locked up bench vise into a nice useable tool again.

Wish I still had pictures....
