How can I remove rust from metal?
user
You can use wire brushes to rub away the oxidized metal, then brush a good cleaning solvent over the metal to remove any remaining dirt and grease. After that you can use a good cleaner like Penetrol to remove the remaining rust and leave a shiny clean metal surface.  What are you rusting?

I just want to remove a little bit of rust from a metal handrail.
user
Well if it’s already dark brown, it’s probably too late to do much about it.  If it’s still a shiny metal and you want to give it a few coats of paint to prevent more rusting, I’d use a good, environmentally friendly paint.  You can also use a medium grit sandpaper to smooth the surface to help it look more new.  Let me know if that’s the kind of thing you were looking for, and I’ll see if I can help you out some more.
assistant
I am willing to try this. Do you have any more information before I get started?
user
Alright, I’m happy to help. Here are a few pointers for you:  

1) Do not use a power tool without adult supervision.

2) Wear safety goggles and gloves.

3) Clean up your tools after you’re done.

4) Use a wire brush on the large parts of the handrail, such as the main supports, and a stiff bristled brush on smaller parts, such as the lower bars.

5) Use a non-toxic solvent to clean away any remaining rust.

6) Wear a mask when cleaning any chemical product to protect yourself from the fumes.

7) Store your solvents and protective gear in a dry place and out of reach of children.

8) Make sure the painting surface is completely dry before painting.

9) Use painter’s tape or painter’s blueprints to mask off anything you don’t want to paint.

10) Check the sealant label on your paint, since you will need to let the paint dry for 24 hours before you can use it.

11) Let the paint dry for at least 24 hours before you remove any tape or blueprints.
