Remove Rust From Steel in Shower and Seal for Future

I have a slate bench in my shower that is supported by 3 steel “L” bars about 1/2” thick. They’ve begun to rust pretty bad, and drip brown water onto the shower floor with some small rust shards. I want to clean off the existing rust and then somehow seal the bars to prevent from re-occurring. The bars are not visible so the finished product doesn’t need to be pretty, just effective. Ideas? submitted by /u/ScottyKAllTheWay [link] [comments]
