If it's just surface rust, just knock it off with a wire wheel.
Make sure there's no "bluing" of the steel, and the surface should be even.
It's highly recommended to get it resurfaced from a machine shop.

Cool. I'll probably look into a resurfacing tonight, if it's less than $30 I'd definitely do it...
