One thing that gets off a thin layer of rust from cast iron is a little Crisco and a paper towel.  Not as exciting a remedy without use of power tools, but it works for me.

Which reminded me: what do the members of this august company prefer 
for rust removal from cast iron? My mother just gave me her old 
ableskiver pan and it's awfully rusty. This is going to be difficult. 
I'm hesitant to dive in with chemical rust removers because then the 
trick is to remove the remover before using the pan for actual food 
without chemicals. You see the quandry.

In the meantime, I'm going out to get a wire brush that will attach to 
my power drill, that may save some elbow grease anyway.

Best,
