With a sprayer it be better on hoist but can't do that

Forget getting it down to bare metal... Wire brush the loose rust off, and apply burnt cylinder oil with a paint brush....Nothing cheaper or better, IMO.

Black oil(used motor oil) right over the rust,slap it on with a brush on a stick or a sprayer. Best thing for rust prevention/remediation.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

This has to do with the exhaust system. My 1999 Silverado I painted the whole exhaust system with a "Hi Heat Aluminum Paint" The paint was made by a local company for GM to paint Die Cast Machines. It was somewhat quite liquid but full of aluminum flakes or powder. They showed it to me one time and it was like grease almost before mixing. Aluminum powder is explosive.
The Good part -- I drove that truck 21 years and the exhaust was still in great shape when I sold it. Something to think about treating in your vehicle.

With a sprayer it be better on hoist but can't do that I’m a huge believer in fluid film.I bought an airless paint sprayer at harbor freight.Work great but there’s area’s where you just can’t access.Something that shoots a small stream of drain oil is in the works for me but that fluid film smells great-kinda like a dead skunk on a cool fall morning-(This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) I love that smell!

Multiple engine oil and tranny leaks work good

Drive to another spot where there is no rust under vehicle.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Most vehicles these days are galvanized metal and don't rust out.
Never seen one of them non-rusting vehicles in Michigan. They must not sell them here....

Black oil(used motor oil) right over the rust,slap it on with a brush on a stick or a sprayer. Best thing for rust prevention/remediation. Do this ^^^. Get a cheap sandblasting gun at Harbor Freight, stick the hose in a bucket of old oil, hook up air hose, and go to town. Used oil really sticks on rusty metal, it will soak in to the good metal.

I just pour big puddles of used motor vechile oil on the highway and drive back and forth acrosst it at a high rate of speed until the beneath of my vechile is thoroughly polysaturated with oil. Don't even have to get my back dirty. Baddabing baddaboom.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.
