I was loading some .44 Specials and I noticed that my F/L sizing die had a good bit of rust on it.
I took a round 4 " dia. brass bristle brush and chucked it up in my drill press.
I removed about 90% of the rust, ( should have continued until I got all of it , but I didn't )
Then I sprayed the die with Brake cleaner and used a paper towel to get all the " gunk " off of it and be certain that it was totally de-greased.
Then I sprayed the die with Satin , Clear , Enamel.
I bet it won't rust anymore.
