I have had good luck with “Navel Jelly” which is stronger and nastier than evapo-rust but you can dab it on with a cotton swap, wait an hour, and wipe it off. You can do a little at a time, and it’s effective. I would use it on that balcony, you don’t want to breath it in.
Once you’ve spot cleaned the rust, you can paint a little clear nail varnish on the metal, and coat with a good paste wax.
