        A friend and I undercoated his truck with rubberized undercoat two 
years ago. 
 We went over everything with a wire brush to ensure cleanliness, then we used 
about 
$30 worth of undercoating on the frame, floor, and other area, being sure to 
thoroughly cover everything as per the manufacturer's instructions.  One year 
later, 
we could hardly find a trace of the rubberized stuff!  I don't think it adheres 
as 
well as the factory stuff.  I have heard of people getting good results with 
tar 
asphalt sealant.  YMMV.  I dunno how well it works either.  
        You might want to make sure you have clean metal, and then give it a 
coat or 
two of rustoleum.  That's what I'm doing with my MGB, since I can't afford to 
have it 
powder coated or whatever.  I don't see why that wouldn't stop rust, especially 
if you 
have clean metal...Anyway, good luck!
