Another non toxic alternative, soak in pineapple juice (straight out of the can is fine), give the bit a scrub with a toothbrush every day or so, when you are happy wash with warm soapy water and soak it with WD 40. Even really heavy flaky rust will succumb eventually, although you may grow some interesting things on the surface of the juice after a while
cheers
