I've tried scrubbing it several times with bar keepers friend soft cleanser and although it improves, it never goes away completely and it always comes back.

can this also be used for rust removal on metal?

Ive been using vinegar so far

It's really good on rust. I used it on some 50 year old tools and they came out of a 2 day soak looking new.

I have since learned about better rust removal chemicals from Adam Savage and Project Farm on YouTube but the citric acid has worked well for me.
