No reason you can't do several at a time, either in the same bucket or
separate buckets.

That sounds like the version commonly called "Rust Converter" and sold under
several different brands here. Should be readily available at FLAPS,
Wal-Mart, etc. I don't know that any one is better than the other, but I've
been happy with the Kleen-Strip brand.

Recently though, I've been using the Rustoleum "Rust Reformer" which is
similar, but seems to actually contain flat black paint in addition to the
rust treatment. Seems to work better, on things that will be left outside
but not given another coat of paint (like the plumbing on my air
compressor).
