Best way is an angle grinder.

V8MoneyPit:
As Paul is suggesting, there are no 'rust killers' as such. You can slow the process, but you can't kill it. The only way to get rid of rust is cut it out and replace with fresh metal.

The likes of Hammerite work on the principal of excluding oxygen so there can't be any oxidisation. That's about as close as you get to stopping rust, but impurities in the metal can still create it.

dxmedia:
Leave it in vinegar over night.  Big bottle from tescos of cheap malt is about 20p.

Deep joy...can you fit a 4x4 in a 20p bottle of vinegar...???
