Wet/dry sandpaper. Go to the workshop forum and do a search for rust or to the SRP Wiki and look at restoring razors here.
It seems you already tried something so we can assume it's not surface rust.
For starters pictures would help to get an overall idea of the blade's condition.
If you don't have a dremel or power tools you'll have to decide if you want to use some elbow grease and time sanding down the blade as to remove as much as is possible.
Here's a quick introduction to hand sanding from our own SRP WIKI

Now there other ways of doing it but they are normally not cost effective unless you already have a working shop...
As I now see my cohort Max has already posted :)
