    Try mixing thick bleach with bicarb of soda into a thick paste and spread it on (I use an old toothbrush or something similar). The bicarb should help it stay in place. Might be worth a try anyway.
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D

    How about gently rubbing rusted area with a pumice stone? I have used this on our bath with good results.
