Beverly Hamilton on Aug 19, 2013What have you tried? It's been a while since I have needed to do anything about this but some standard stuff like baking soda and vinegar or lemon slice laid on it for a soak might work.Helpful Reply

Patti on Aug 19, 2013Actually, @Beverly Hamilton , This is a question posted for a coworker. I haven't any problem with rust rings, thank God! I recommended using baking soda, but didn't think to recommend the vinegar or lemon. Good thoughts! Thank you!!Helpful Reply

Martha on Mar 01, 2015I also use magic eraser. I have a bad habit of setting my cast iron skillet on my formica counter top -- the magic eraser works really well on rust.Helpful Reply
