Spotless Stainless, the brush-on/rinse-off goop that removes topical rust from stainless steel, worked really, really well on my stanchions and deck fittings.
But as I was rinsing it off I noticed some of it had oozed onto halyards and other lines. Now I'm wondering whether the acid has somehow weakened the rope. The manufacturer doesn't seem to make mention of any hazards.
