lots here will tell you oxacylic acid.

if its only fine surface rust tho, just use 0000 gauge wire wool and a decent metal polish.

believe it or not modern common rust remover is very good, but raw oxacylic acid can be got a most home stores in the form of decking cleaner/wood bleach

I read foil is also good at cleaning, whether or not I'm not sure.
