There's also "evaporust" which is a product that gets a lot of press these days for various things.

I'd be concerned with most caustic chemical solutions (acid, base). I believe that using an acid will potentially cause new damage (in addition to what was caused by the rust).
The acids are going to cause a lot of problems for the newly painted interior. Wet sanding should be pretty safe.
