Hi, I've got some horrendous rust stains on flagstones, from old cast
iron
pation furniture.

What's the best way of cleaning these? Can it be done? I've tried all
sorts of the usual things and nothing really seems to work ...

Thanks.

Barb


Dissolve a Steredent Denture tablet in a very little hot water. When
totally
disolved and the foaming finished, try a small amount on a rust patch.
Pour
it on and leave it for 12 hours. If one of the rust patches is out of
view,
try it there :-)

I think you will find it works :-))

And probably a lot easier to get hold of than my suggestion!!
