If you have rust you pretty much have to sand it off with fine sandpaper and paint it...

you can't really remove rust that easily other than sanding it, but if you wanna get rid of the dirt and grime and grease and ****.... spray some simple green on there for like 5 minutes, scrub a lil bit, then hose off.

Gunk Engine Bright and Simple Green. Just make sure u cover all ur electrical stuff, i usually use plastic bags but i also hear tin foil works well because its easily moldable.
