A product called Evaporust. This is a liquid that looks and feels like
soap. I have soaked rusted tools in it, and they come out clean and black.
It won't restore the shininess, though.

Thanks Leo and Rex for the tips on EvapoRust; it looks like a promising
product for this and many other de-rusting operations I come across. Now if
I can just find a local source for the stuff.
