Actually, the mild acids used to clean off lime and calcium deposits won't actually remove the red, and very likely won't stop the spread of superficial dezincification. That's why I made the distinction between perforating red rot and a little surface coloration (which is what his description sounded like). Only polishing will remove the superficial red color.
