Overheard a guy at the hardware store say he uses a garden sprayer with vinegar to clean his tools, and it got me thinking about rust on trowels.

Guess he's trying to pickle his trowel for later.

Grant130 has the right idea, it's basically pickling. Vinegar works but it's slow. A wire brush gets the big flakes off fast. For bad rust, a quick soak in evaporust saves the metal. Then just keep them dry and oiled.
