The problem with the acid is you will need a lot of it as you will have to soak them in the solution for hours and hours. Also, it will only remove chrome, it won't touch the nickel plating underneath. If the rust is coming from below the nickel you won't be happy with the results.
Sandblasting will remove the chrome if you have the proper abrasive ( aluminum oxide ), and lots of volume and pressure. I have done it many times with my homemade cabinet.
I think the easiest and cheapest solution would be to have a chrome shop dip them in their "secret sauce". This is something they have to do to every piece of steel that comes into their shop for replating, so it's not rocket science. Any bubba chrome shop can do this.
