Unless it has a special coating then Autosol's Metal Polish sounds like a good idea. Should blend in after airing for a few days.

That fanimold does look good, shiny welding, oooh!

Sure but to remove the rust your going to have to polish it a bit. One of the compounds is a slightly agressive cutting compound so it should remove the rust spots fairly easily, if you want to get a good shine you could use the other compounds.

It more expensive than autosol but if you do it right it will remove those spots permenantly as some of the metal has to be removed otherwise the rust will just bubble back up. You need to get to good clean metal again. The cutting compound will do this.
