Running board rust removal

Seems to me the even new X5s show some signs of rust on the "stainless" runniing boards(presumably the result of where most raw steel comes from, china?).

Anyone have any thoughts on controlling or removing the rust.

get a product called ironX from detailersdomain.com
Its just flecks of metal from brakes, the road etc. The running boards are aluminum and do not rust.
