Other side is worse, inside is almost perfect though. Little to no rust.

Barkeeper's Friend and some elbow grease. Wear rubber gloves.

Let it soak for a day or so in Coka Cola, it'll eat the rust away and help prevent rust from forming. That's how I clean up old rusty AK mags.

This.

OP I have the same mess kit, from like 2010. It looks exactly the same. Not sure what material, but I don't think it is stainless. Used it as a tray in the field.

For cooking, I have a snow peak pot. Titanium garbage, holds 30oz. Never used, because cooking innawoods is dumb and I always bring enough water to not have to boil some. Good quality though. Would SHTF with.

this is what you do OP. boil a large pot of water. once its boiling, drop the two pieces of the mess kit in separately. boil them for a few minutes. the next part is easier if you have a gas range. get the pieces hot enough that you cant comfortably touch them.. then with a paper towel, rub them down with vegetable oil
