Im not a body guy pro by any means, but I guess you just either sand it down with a rough grit sanding paper or, blast it away with a sandblast gun w/ a soft media. Im sure others will chime in to tell you whats best. I guess a picture could be useful too.

Abrasives are the only way to remove corosion. Chemicals will only work so much. Then when you do so seal it to prevent the electrolyte from corroding the cathode and anode.
