Its hard to actually decipher what your trying to ask in this post, but if your pickups have rust on them...I would look into getting new pickups.

I have no clue what material your bridge is so I can't recommend any chemical to help clean it, but a dry soft rag always works wonders.

As for the paint, I have no clue, its up to you.

I totally agree on the case thing, Rust on pickups just sand off with a very fine grit black paper like a 900 or higher (1200) and smear a very lite coat of vasiline that should keep rust away reapply as needed. On the bridge an old tooth brush works great.
