Great score and report on a new (to me ) product.

Went to my mom's house the other day and found a garage sale across the street. Sign said tools so I decided to check it out. I found three four bullet Lyman bullet molds with handles. Price was 5 dollars each. One for 45 auto 230 gr round nose, 44 mag 238 gr semi wadcutter and 30 carbine 120 gr. They were red with surface rust on the outside but when opened the actual bullet molding areas were good. I did some research and found a product called Evaporust. It removes rust without harming the metal underneath. Its non toxic and very easy to use. Its not for use on firearms because bluing is a form of rust and it will remove that also but its amazing on tools. I will have to reblue the molds but they are like new in the white.

evaporust is great stuff
So, if I had a firearm that had so little bluing left that it needed to be stripped down and start from scratch, it COULD be used for that purpose??
If you wanted a firearm stripped of bluing it would do that
The stuff works great down the bores of rusty muzzle loading barrels. Saves a LOT of work trying to scrub out the rust the old fashioned way!
