I keep an eye out at antique stores for things like broadaxes and, most recently, found a pair of old carpenter's pliers. They were not in terrible shape, so I was able to clean them up pretty well with some Ballistol and a copper wire brush.
What about the items that are thickly encrusted with dirt and rust? Is there something I could soak it in to help break the stuff up before I start scrubbing? I have an old cast iron skillet that is in really rough shape, for instance, and would like to at least get it looking like a cast iron skillet
