Rust question!!!

Rust question!!!
Is it possible use "Cold galvanizing compound" after use of "Rust reformer "- that mean can I spray CGC over black oxide that is result of application of "Rust reformer" at solid rust. Rustoleum company said how that is not problem but I found at Internet that black oxide interfere with proper connection of Zinc and steel.
First problem is that is practically impossible to clean rusty surface at car to shiny metal that is like necessary for "Galvanizing compound" to properly adhere. All that I can do is clean rust area to dark brown solid rust with help of grinder. Past year I tried system "Rust reformer" - "Paint" but it didn't work best. At Internet said that Rust reformer is inferior way to fight rust and that is Galvanizing best.
I would like to tray line "Rust reformer" - "Cold galvanizing compound"- "Primer for CGC" - "final paint" but I'm not sure about this "Rust reformer" - "Cold galvanizing compound" step.

Have you tried Rust Bullet. I've heard good things about it and they are a supporter here, or at least used to be.

Here is what I talk about. Top of picture is "shiny (silver) metal). Middle to left is solid rust dark brown that is good for rust reformer. Middle left is red rust. In middle is rest of my failed black oxide - paint system. CAN I USE "Cold Galvanizing Compound" direct over that dark brown stuff in middle left or metal should be silver like on top?
