Frame Rust Question

my truck is in good shape but the frame is rusty and starting to flake. short of sand blasting it, is there a good rust inhibitor that i can spray or paint onto the underside and frame?

A wire wheel and some POR15. Get the smaller cans and you can brush it on and not waste any.

Don't forget fuel hoses and ground straps if there is any.
