Thank you for your kind words!
It wasn't a planned episode, however when I was under the car fixing the rear diff bushing with 5 minute epoxy (if you haven't seen it look for episode 23), I saw all that rust and had to do something about it. Every other part of the underbody looked good!
In the spring I will have a follow up episode to see how well is it holding up.

I noticed it was just recalled in November though b/c of labelling/child safety issues so they may have taken it off the shelves until they repackage it.

Crap... as posted above, it looks like it was recalled a few months ago.
The bottle I used was purchased about 5 years ago.
I suspect any "rust eating" product should work well to slow down the rust.

For those in Canada, I think I found a good substitute from Canadian Tire:
Rust Remover | Canadian Tire
I purchased it yesterday and will do a quick test it today.
