Mix a cream of tartar, which is a mild acid, with water to make a paste and place on the rust stains. Rub after it sits for a little while and rinse. You may need to do this a few times.
You can also try a paste made with borax and lemon juice and allow it to sit on the stain until dry, then rinse. One last paste that you can try is one of scouring powder, cream of tartar and peroxide. Allow this one to sit for 1/2 hour then rinse
Salty Lemon
This works great! Pour a pile of table salt on top of the rust spot then squeeze lemon juice over it. Let this pile of salty lemon juice sit for several hours, over night or longer. This will draw the stain out and you can actually see the rust in the pile of salt when its down its job.
Pumice Stone
To get rid of rust stains in a tub or toilet, just rub gently with a pumice stone. Works like a charm.
Whisk It Out
An excellent product that I have used to get out rust stains is called Whisk Rust Stain Remover. The bottle says that it will get rust stains off white sinks and toilet bowls. Both are porcelain, so this product should work on your porcelain tub. The product produces a chemical reaction, which removes the rust. I have used this on clothes with rust stains, and it was successful every time I have used it. This is an wonderful product!
Hydrogen Peroxide
To remove rust spots from tubs and sinks cover the rust spot with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide and sprinkle with cream of tartar. Let sit for 30 minutes and wipe off with a sponge.
Barkeeper's Friend
The easiest way to get rid of rust stains on almost anything is with a product called "Barkeeper's Friend", which is a very mild scouring powder. The can even says you can use it on clothing. It really works!
