Rusty hair grip marked bath

Options
My colleagues daughter has just called to say that her daughter has left a hair grip on the edge of the bath overnight and it has left a rusty mark. She didn't know the best way to remove it and is worried as it is Army accommodation.

I've had a quick search and either cheap coke or maybe WD40 seem to be the best answers??

    If it's a white bath rubbing the mark with the cut side of half a fresh lemon should lift it.

    Sorry kere29 I don't know but I'm sure a little bit of Jiff now called cif would do the trick.
