Ok, so I took too long after removing the paint off of my stock valve covers. Now they are rusty. Any way to remove the rust without having to sand it off? Im going to have them chromed when Im done with everything

if it's superficial you could try WD40 or a spray but otherwise it's wire brush sanding with a drill or plain ol' sanding it down

Use a wire wheel on a drill. I use that on almost everything that has rust on it or that i need to get paint off of.
