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.

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 :)

It may take a few hours to overnight for Coca-Cola to remove rust from a nail. The acid in the soda can help break down the rust, but the effectiveness may vary depending on the amount of rust and time left to soak.
coca cola (soda) is the best to remove anything from rust to grese grass stain excet.
no because of the carbon dioxide, it is impossible to rust
Coca Cola is full of acid.
Coca-Cola is often recommended for removing rust due to its acidic nature. The carbonation and acidic properties of Coca-Cola help to break down the rust, making it easier to remove. Remember, while it can be effective, it may not work as quickly or efficiently as dedicated rust removal products.
Coca cola contains carbonic acid, phosphoric acid, and sugar, all of which can accelerate the rusting process of a nail due to their corrosive properties. The acidity in the drink reacts with the iron in the nail, causing it to corrode and rust at a faster rate when submerged in Coca Cola.

Coca Cola is a sticky substance when it dries, so it is not an ideal product to use for most cleaning jobs. The best to try are: cleaning the toilet, removing rust, degreasing an engine, and if you want clean pennies, you can soak them in coca cola.
Try soaking it in coca-cola!
Mix baking soda with water to create a paste, then use a toothbrush to scrub the rust off the car battery terminals. You can also use a wire brush or sandpaper to remove stubborn rust. After cleaning, apply a small amount of petroleum jelly to the terminals to prevent future rusting.
It's said that Coca Cola can take the rust off of a rusty nail.
