Ok, great find. The rust remover is for spots in fabric I think.

If you have trouble with the rust stains.....soak them in lemon juice. We had some 100 year old christening dresses we inherited with rust and the lemon trick....worked wonders. They came out like new. Looks like you happened on a really lovely vintage piece.
