I am currently repairing rust on my longitudinal/hell hole/jack receiver. There is surface rust in many inaccessible locations, between layers of sheet metal in the longs and spot welded seams and inside surfaces of the longs. I believe this is where the deterioration of our cars starts.

What products are being used to stop and prevent rust in these inaccessible locations? Are they effective?

Your comments and advice are appreciated in advance.

Thank You

Phosphoric acid seems to be the common choice. Naval jelly, Ospho, POR Metal Prep are all trade names for it. I think most of the "rust converters" use it as a working ingredient as well.
