Removing chassis rust with blackstar?

My X spent 4 years up north and has a lot of rust underneath the chassis, anyone ever use blackstar rust remover polymer? I cannot stand looking at it and was wondering if anyone had success using this product? It looks like it removes rust and seals it with a polymer. Thoughts?

I haven't used that - but did use Rust Reformer on mine. Mine had a little surface rust so I used a strong degreaser and pressure washer to clean it and then sprayed it down after it dried. Has held up for 3 years now and looks nice and black underneath. It recommends a top coat but I didn't use one but if I was in a heavy corrosion area I would for the ectra protection. POR15 is another great option.

I had heard of POR 15, this just seemed like an easier product to use. I am going to tackle this project as soon as it arrives. With the lift on my truck you can see underneath it pretty well and I cannot stand seeing that rusty look. Can't wait to get started.
