They are right about the oven cleaner. Paint stripper is to fast unless you cover it with thin plastic. Either way the oven cleaner is best and cheapest. Spray on and cover with plastic bags, etc. over night. Wash off the muck. You should light sand all rust and then apply phosphoric acid(Rust-Mort Brand) (weak solution). A little rust left on does not hurt as the acid "converts" it. For places where you cannot paint,(fender folds etc.) spray rust converter. (available at NAPA) The parts will darken overnight and you can leave the parts unpainted for quite a while if kept inside. A good primer sealer compatible with your paint can be applied immediately and the slightly glossy finish will show up all those little dings that seem to appear AFTER you paint. The bondo will stick tightly to the primer sealer. If you have a big hole, Corvette body panel adhesive(a super tough bondo) will take care of it. I help restore old cars and this is what we do when sandblasting is not an option. The Corvette adhesive works well in old rusty car trunks. Don't let anyone touch your parts, if they have any grease at all on their fingers it will come back to haunt you. I learned the hard way! Good luck.
