Martin,
If this a mechanical item or parts that need the rust removed thoroughly before being refinished or painted, a muriatic acid dip will do a super job. Muriatic can be bought inexpensively by the gallon at many lumber/hardware & pool supply stores, used in large part in treating swimming pool water.

Smaller parts can be immersed in a dip, using a spray bottle or brush to apply it on larger items. You will see a foaming/bubbling action occur as the muriatic cleanses the metal. Depending on the severity of rust, dipped items will be ready to remove and rinse in as little as 5-10 minutes.

Be sure to read all warnings and directions on the container- use only out of doors, wear gloves etc. as this is a chemical that you need to use cautiously.

If the blade isn't deeply pitted, the least complicated way is to apply 0000 metallic wool with WD40. The WD40 additionally acts as a rust preventative. i might use a similar approach on the range, yet use mineral spirits b/4 portray.

Naval jelly, possibly, steel wool, or maybe rubbing compound. It all depends on what's rusted.

What is it on? There are products like L.S.R. that should work on small jobs, and bigger jobs will probably require sanding and refinishing.
