How To Remove Rust Stains From Wood
Andrew Davis
Iron stains can be caused by non-galvanized screws, nails, hinges, and other elements on wood furnishings and other materials. These items rust when moisture comes into contact with them, leaving streaks and brownish-red rings. Iron oxidizes, and this causes rust. Sometimes, the oxidation reacts to chemicals in wood or stain, leaving a blueish stain. Iron stains can be hard to remove, particularly on stained or finished woods. If this happens, use galvanized materials that resist rusting.
