Buy a rust converter gel. It converts the rust to a sandable primer. Brands usually don't matter, and you can buy a small bottle for about 8 bucks. Don't use rustoleum, it just covers up the rust, it doesn't destroy it.

NotAClue says:
Does not exist! Once rust has begun, there are NO cure-alls! That is why it is refered to as "cancer"!

I suggest your research your claims before you give me a thumbs down next time.

KBS Coatings makes the most advanced rust preventive paint on the planet. RustSeal is like por15 but RustSeal is made w/ deeper richer pigments & these pigments are dispersed more thoroughly in the resins resulting in better metal adhesion & improved UV resistance. RustSeal is also less expensive than por15 saving you money.

RustSeal is formulated in a thin viscosity & that enables it to enter the open pores of bare & rusted metal. It is a moisture cured urethane so it actually draws moisture out of the air & metal to cure. It dries rock hard and as it does so locks itself into the metal to which it has embedded itself. This permanent non-porous coating now seals off all access to any water & oxygen. (And any Further exposure to moisture will actually strengthens it!)This remarkable coating is incredibly tough and comes in colors not seen w/ por15. Silver, red & green are popular industrial colors & contain metallic pigments for high abrasion impact.

RustSeal is self leveling & can be brushed or sprayed. Brushmarks flow out nicely. RustSeal can be topcoated with any paint system too.

Once again, notaclue has proven that he really has no clue. Por15 can be brushed on right over rust (after the loose stuff has been scraped or wire brushed off ) and that will be the last time you have to deal with it. (often used on vehicle frames, iron fences, other metal exposed to the weather but doesn't have to have a perfect vehicle finish). What's better is to sandblast the area until there is no rust left, acid etch the metal or prime it with a self etching primer, fill the pitted areas if necessary with bondo or another body filler, reprime with a high build direct to metal urethane primer, sand smooth and paint it. (use sealer when necessary, just before you paint) If the metal is so pitted that it actually has holes that go clear through, then you are going to have to weld a patch in that area, or seal it off from the back side, so water doesnt penetrate your bondo and paint from inside out.

The after purchase rust proofing is over-kill, and a waste of money. without asserting so at once, that salesman is maximum advantageous you to have self assurance that there is not any safety below the automobile now. yet there is. All manufacturers handle for rust on the time the automobile is made. in the event that they did no longer, there would be serious end subject concerns after only 2 or 3 years.

Some good answers already given depending on what lengths you're prepared to go to removing rust, industrial chemicals are available to remove it totally, these are highly toxic (on par with those that used to be used for chroming) and i would not entertain using them, even for brake drums and discs, grit blasting or using a pneumatic descaler (air chisel with needles for lorry chassis) if applicable or with zip wheel or abrasives, it's all down to physical effort, rusted items of machinery i grit blasted in 1994 and sprayed with hammerite are still sound today with no signs of rust.

My b/f says the only way to get rid of rust is to wire brush it or sand it away then either paint it normally or use rustoleum.

Just a normal wire brush. Then spray on Rustoleum so it doesn't happen again.
