How can I prevent rust on my tools in a humid climate?

To prevent rust, keep your tools dry, use rust-resistant coatings, and store them in a climate-controlled environment.

What kind of rust-resistant coatings do you recommend?

I recommend using oil-based rust inhibitors or silicone sprays, as they create a protective barrier against moisture.

Are there any specific storage solutions that work best?

Yes, consider using a dehumidifier in your storage area or airtight containers to minimize moisture exposure.

How often should I apply these coatings?

It's best to reapply rust-resistant coatings every few months, especially in high humidity conditions.

What if my tools are already rusted?

You can remove rust using sandpaper or a rust remover, then apply a protective coating to prevent future rust.
