Use Evaporust or even agricultural molasses. Both work well.

That's why I said to look on youtube for instructions, they tell you to keep an eye on it. It's 5% acid so the "soak and forget" mindset is something you shouldn't have.
Sorry, but it does a better job than anything else other than media blasting.
One could also look on youtube on removing rust through electrolysis if you want to "soak and forget" it.
