Default Tools - refinishing
The tools in my tool kit have started to oxidize and have some surface rust showing up.

Has anyone refinished their tools? If so, how successful did it turn out?

Will try and post some pics later today.

I have used CLR to remove surface rust, then carnuba wax to seal and prevent further oxidation.

You can clean them up and have them replated with either clear or yellow zinc.
