There has to be an easier solution to this. Chemical stripping?

Stripping just removes the old coating. I still have to deal with the rust. Which isn't hard, it's just that there are all these impossible to get to area with my wire wheel. Likely I'll just do it with sandpaper by hand.

Not that I'm aware of, or I would have gone that route.

There are chemical strippers for rust too.
WunderCade:
If you have a compressor, the sandblasting attachment is only 12 bucks at HD.

They don't do nearly as good a job as an abrasive, IMO.
