CLR usually works quite well for stuff like this. It's a spray cleaner. I think it stands for Calcium, Lime, Rust remover.
Just a word of warning on this - I’ve had CLR ruin countertops and sinks by accidentally leaving it in contact with them for a long time, make sure you’re diligent about wiping up rings from containers and any drips - learn from my expensive mistakes!
Also test it in a hidden spot first to make sure it doesn’t dull the finish or something.
Edit: IMHO give the vinegar suggestion a go first, much less caustic
I use CLR too (lots of tannin in my well water). Requires some elbow grease but works pretty good
