That's how I restore rusty black pots. It may take a few treatments, but it usually works wonders. Same with calcium deposits on plumbing fixtures. I don't see why this would be any different. It's always a good practice to start with the least harsh method first. At least that's the rule I always use.
I would definitely stay away from the muriatic acid though. I've used it to clean water stains off of my fiberglass boat and I distinctly remember the instructions warning not to use on aluminum. The runoff had a pretty harsh reaction on the galvanized trailer as well.
