Tad bit of rust on vintage childs chair,what can I use to get rid of it and prevent it from rusting even more?

Answer:

It depends a lot on how much damage there is and what kind of surface it's onPainted? Chrome? One way is to lightly brush the rust area with a wire brush, and then coat with WD40The WD40 will fill the pores and keep any more rust from formingBut I wouldn't try this on chrome, since it will scratch itIt could be used on painted surfaces though - though you may need to re-paintIf the rust is on chrome, dip a piece of crumpled aluminum foil in coke and scrub over the areaYou might want to ask your local hardware store for help, and see what else they can recommend.
