I have learned that there are somethings you can do and some things that you should leave up to the professionals. I have been noticing the side of the outside walls of my house were getting big dark orange spots on them and I could not figure out where they were coming from. I didn’t know what they were so I figured I could use some bleach to remove them but I was totally wrong. I am giving you this rust removal advice because I don’t want you to have to go through what I had to do.
Since I didn’t know what these orange spots were I just decided that like everything else I could just use bleach and the orange stain would go away. Well I can tell you the only thing that went was the grass because the bleach did nothing to the orange stain and wiped out all of my grass in the area.
One day I was talking to a neighbor of mine and he said that the sprinklers do that to the wall and you have to paint over it but it isn’t worth it because the stains keep coming back. Apparently the well water that the sprinklers use has rust in it which was causing the walls to have big orange rust stains on them.
Rust Removal Tips
I looked for a person who was specialized in rust removal online and set up an appointment. The rust removal guy came over to my house and charged me a couple hundred bucks to do one wall. It took him like 30 minutes to do which I couldn’t believe. I asked him what he did and he said he was using a top notch rust remover.
As soon as the guy left I went online to check out the pricing of other rust removal guys in the area and came to a rust removal tips site where they told me what to do to get rid of the orange rust stains on the wall. I want you to know that I could of saved about $150.00 if I would of done this by myself but this is a lesson that I had to learn. All I needed to do was purchase a natural rust remover spray and it would of dissolved the rust without me having to scrub.
So my rust removal advice to you is if you have orange stains on the wall don’t do what I did and call a rust removal guy out to your house but better yet get yourself a good rust remover and take care of it yourself. With the money I could of saved I could of taken the wife and kids out to a nice dinner and movie!
