Use bronze wool and I like automatic transmission fluid. You can find bronze wool in several grades (I use the medium and fine) at hardware stores. Sine you are new at this start with a fine grade. It may be all you need anyway. Bronze is harder than rust but softer than steel. It won't remove patina & original finish if you go gentle & use common sense. The ATF helps to soften the rust and also prevents it from scratching. It is also one of the best anti-rust gun oils.
