How do you clear up surface rust?

[Verde]

Hi all, I'm working on my first restoration project (Lazer ZX) and the turnbuckles and dogbones have some surface rust. Is there a method I can use to get them looking new again?

Many thanks in advance,
Jay.

I always run them up in a drill with some metal polish

Or you could buy lunsford tie rods & stainless steel screws

Stick them in some phosphoric acid solution or if you don't have that, overnight in some Coca Cola.

or if they are very rusty use electrolysis, works very well

If you get the worst off with a fine steel wire cup brush in a drill then swap to a brass wire brush it adds a slight gold sheen

Thanks for the replies everyone, loads to go on there.
