What is everyone’s favorite rust encapsulator?

I have used Bill Hirsch miracle paint and Por 15 in the past with varying success. I really want to coat hard to get areas and floors in the Blazer I’m doing. Any reviews would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve used por 15 as well. Seems to last if prepped correctly. I’ve heard it doesn’t hold up to sunlight without a topcoat.

That is very true, no UV protectant. I found out the hard way here in sunny south Florida.

I used rust x about a year ago on a frame. So far, so good but the truck has been kept inside too.

Thanks, I’ll look into that.

I've used with excellent success "Rust Bullet." As long as the metal is sound (i.e. large chucks of rust scale and dirt are removed with a scraper or wire wheel), I have not had it fail on any rust repair. It is nasty stuff. Once you open the can you have to use the whole can.
