My sister made me a white, kiln-fired pottery garden statue now covered in rust stains. Tried detergent, wet&forget, CLR. Could nearby rusted bbq plate have caused it? Is there any way I can remove stains?

hydrochloric acid, about 1 part in 4. If it’s kiln fired it shouldn’t damage it but spot test on an inconspicuous area first
