I bought a wire wheel brush for my drill (lower right), which worked but was taking forever and wrecking my drill bearings in the process.

So... back to Menard's which had a Makita angle grinder on sale ($35) and a speed-rated brush ($10). Man, what a difference a few thousand RPM makes! Showed the rust who's boss.

The drill/brush combo is still handy for tight crevices and more detailed work. The angle grinder is too aggressive for that.
