Ginny 90 grain vinegar is 10% acidity.
It is usually in a jug with a blue label right along with the other stuff.
You can get 20% at lowes in the garden section.
If it has oil on it it wont work you will have to put it in the fire again first.
Then put it in the vinegar to get the rust off.
When it comes out it will look grey like it came out of the cast it was made in.
Once you have the rust off oil it and put it in the oven to season.
Keep doing this and it will be fine.
Some of these old USA made pans are collectors items.
