Coca-Cola, like all soft drinks, contains carbonic acid which will dissolve rust to some degree, but the rust-cleaning benefits are offset by the sugar residue left behind. Simple soda water would be more effective in this case.

If the purpose of dissolving rust is to free parts that have been bound by corrosion, an industrial penetrating lubricant such as Kano Kroil would be better-suited to the task. Kroil is known by industrial mechanics as the best penetrating lubricant on the market. However, it is not readily available from retail outlets. The best source is from the manufacturer's website at http://kanolabs.com

Yes it can and it is also very effective when you are cleaning the commode. You can use it instead of Harpic.

Additionally, If you have been cooking and/or any activity where you have odor in hands that doesn't go with soap, try washing your hands cola and latter with soap, it will take all the odor away :)

Yes the citric acid in the coke works as a rust remover. just soak the object in the coca cola and clean and scrub it after 24 hours it will most likely be sticky after soaking.
