climberted Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 I pulled a boneheaded move on my last ice trip and didn't let my screws dry out properly .Now they have a little rust on them. Whats the best way to get rid of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Just use them again. The first time you screw them in ice, you will get a brown ice core. (shit ice??) No big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the best way to get rid of it? Steel Wool - available at any Hardware store, usually in the paint department. It's best to eliminate the corrosion immediately, not to let it sit around all summer. Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Just watch out for this method as it remove the chrome coating of the screw making the area of the corrosion even bigger And creating a micro grooves for the water to collect and rust it even more What I will suggest is apply WD40 to the screw and let it soak then wipe it off with a cloth and applying second coat for storage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
