I wanted to put these parts in evaporust while i’ve got it working on my mirror. Not sure what to grab this button with to twist the nut off? I tried needle nose and regular pliers while twisting with an 8mm, but they won’t stick. I’m afraid if i use vise grips it will just ruin the button anyways

Do you have any PB blaster left? Might help.

If you mangle the button, you could opt to replace the bolt. I think I used a socket cap bolt once.
 
I'd put something on it to prevent it re-rusting, like a little clear dabbed on with a small brush or even silver paint. Always looks better than rust.
 
You have to remember that the pitting caused by rust is the removal of the metal as well as the chrome when it's bad enough. The pits won't go away, just the rust.
