The best way is electrolysis. This is what most professional restorers use. The link below gives some info--I've used it myself on several pans and it does a great job. It's not nearly as complicated as it sounds at first glance--basically you put washing soda in a container of water (a plastic 5-gallon pail will work nicely), then stick in the piece you want to clean, put in some sacrificial metal, hook the negative clamp of a battery charger to the piece you're cleaning, the positive clamp to the sacrificial piece (I often use old lawnmower blades), turn on the current and let it set for a couple of days. Wipe off the surface every couple of days (you'll need to turn the pan over once one side is clean as electrolysis works on "line of sight") and within a week you'll have a completely rust-free pan ready for seasoning.

• electrolysis.
