Thanks, I would except whole careers have been formed around chemical engineering.
The best way to remove rust is a warm bath of a neutralized acid like the Evapo Rust or Metal Rescue. For larger projects phosphoric acid works well. I use chrome cleaner with phosphoric/oxylic/nitric blend, look on the automotive supply shelf and read the labels, you will find them.
Always use PPE and be aware that fumes often result with the reaction of oxides (rust) and acids. Fresh air, safety glasses, rubber gloves is the rule and keep a box or solution of baking soda to neutralize any spills. Keep pets away from all chemical work as well as childern. Always clean up. Never leave a chemical mess.
