I second the vote for the Magic Eraser. Generic equivalents work as well.

I tried CLR and Lime Away, didn't like results. I have an old tub. Saw recommendation for Lysol Toilet Bowl Cleaner. Voila! It worked wonderfully. Tub looked great (or as great as it could). Just give it awhile to work; I gave it over two hours just to get the best results possible. Cay from FL

There is a product called 'Whink', that you can buy at any local hardware store. The best stuff I've ever used & no scrubbing. It just melts the rust away, without harming the finish. You'll wonder what you ever did without it!

I like the magic erasers that Mr. Clean puts out. They do a great job!

CLR is a rust/lime remover you can buy in most department and grocery stores.
