Oxalic acid is a great rust remover. It isn't a rust preventative. Two different problems - two different solutions. (This is also a good general theory of problem solving.
One of these days I'm going to buy a completely TIG welded steel frame and fork and have the whole damn frame parkerized (phosphoric acid treatment, AKA pickling) and flip rust the finger for the rest of my life.
