What is the best product for this that won't be too hard on the countertops?
ZUD is a wonderful product for that/ TRY CLR,BUT MAYBE MIX IT WITH WATER .SOFT SCRUB WITH BLEACH MIGHT WORK TOO.
This site has some good thinking for getting rid of all kinds of stuff. Just click the cooperation & click on the stains tab at the top.

They suggest soaking in a mixture of 1/4 cup lemon juice for every 4 cups of wet ¨C or ¨C 1 cup white vinegar for every 4 cups of water and allow it to soak overnight. Not sure how you can soak a counter top without it drying out. Maybe soak a towel and cover the rust spot overnight.
Answers:    i've used an sos or brillo pad amazingly lightly over the stains. just type of gently rub. kind of adjust the pressure as needed. its worked for me. mind not to rub too hard and scratch the surface righteous luck
steel wool and baking soda
