It has been my experience when using vinegar to remove rust, that as soon as any cleaning, brushing, etc. is finished, that a quick spray of Gunk Liquid Wrench will protect the item from flash rust. I also sometimes use Marvel Mystery Oil, just a quick wipe with a rag lightly saturated with it works. Great when cleaning old tools. Seems like the Marvel has a more pleasant aroma that the Liquid Wrench, though. Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is a good oil for this, also.

Your Mileage May Vary......
