Is there some sort of oil, cream, liquid or anything else that you can buy to remove rust from the pole pieces of a pickup? I'd assume that there'd have to be something out there at a hardware store, but I just wanted to get something that wouldn't have any negative effects on the rest of the pickup (corroding the bobbin etc.) So, does anyone have any product reccomendations?

You can use a pen/ink eraser...the hard white ones on cheap pens work best and easy to get to those poles. I'm into the relic thing so I like 'em nasty and funky.

+1 for the baking soda toothpaste trick. I also used some of that Scratch X finishing compound for cars and it worked great for the poles as well as polishing up the bobbins to get rid of imperfections.
