Need a STRONG Chemical rust remover - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Were rebuilding an 81 Chevy K10 shortbed from the frame up and putting an 80 body on it. But we need to get the rust on this K frame cleaned up so we can paint the thing. I started sandblasting it with my little 5 gallon sandblaster in the driveway but this is just way too much work. So I decided we would try some chemical solutions.

So I need a GOOD STRONG chemical rust remover, any suggestions? Eastwood has a couple different products like their oxisolv, but I don't know how strong these are? I'v tried the little spray bottles of gel from advance auto, but it just doesn't seem strong enough to get this rust off.
