Come to think of it i think i learned about the vinegar trick on this forum!

WD-40 works well also. If there's any level of rust on the parts I soak them in white vinegar overnight, like you do. Then I soak all hardware in WD-40 overnight, or when I get to it. That with a wire brush they look like new. At some point the parts will be black zinc plated.
