removing rust from old razors

Is there a generally accepted way to do this that works?

I have been cleaning a few that I picked up today with Scrubbing Bubbles among other things...I have some orange spots still on a couple of them. Is that rust or what? I will post pictures if it will help.

Thanks in advance
 
I tend to do two applications of Scrubbing Bubbles w/orange (this is the non-aerosol kind). If there is any rust left I use MAAS and polish it right off. Try letting the SB settle for about a minute and scrub vigorously with a hard toothbrush (I would say the intensity of the motion and the toothbrush type depend upon the razor). Then I would apply some MAAS in a light coat up to two times to remove any rust. Applying MAAS and polishing calls for some q-tips to apply/polish and coffee filters to polish. You should see some black stains on the medium used for polishing.
