Rusty spokes

Didn’t spend a ton of time on the wheel but here’s the result. Pictures make it look better than it actually is, but ok for an enduro bike. Used 0000 steel wool then Autosol metal polish. Will try other suggestions on the back wheel that’s in rougher shape.

That's come up really well.
All this talk of spokes is giving me shudders, when I recall what a pain in the ass they were to keep clean and rust-free in the winter with salty roads.
I'd quite forgotten, as I've had mag wheels for the past 30 years. Can't say I miss the spokes at all, nice though they are to look at.
 
May be easier with the wheel off of the bike. It was a pita on the sprocket side. Worth the effort tho. Concerned how quickly they may rust once ridden. I;l finf out in the springtime.
