They could use a good wipe-down with CLR. And then oiling the screws.

Does CLR really remove rust from tools? I’m in Florida and even my dry tools I. The garage get rusty just from humidity.

CLR can remove rust from metal (and other subtrates), but if the metal has corrosion that's eating into the mteal it can't repair that.

My city has tap water that leaves a crusty residue over a time, a fairly short time. I use CLR-soaked paper towels and lay them firmly on the surface of my porcelain & stainless sinks as well as around the fixture.

I also use CLR and a pumice stone to remove the toilet bowl hard water deposit ring.
