I may just do that figure wd40 for a couple days to get it started wouldn't hurt though
WD-40 is basically a penetrating oil, so it won't really hurt anything, but the turpentine will probably work a little more efficiently.

If you want the ultimate rust dissolver wihtout resorting to acids, go to your local tree-hugger health food store and get a couple bottles of "100% pure, natural wintergreen oil." (Not the stuff you get at Walgreen's.) It was a tip I got from a renowned, but now, unfortunately deceased, gunsmith.

A bottle runs about 6 bucks, but it lasts a long time as a little goes a long way.
