Best method to restore rusted metal?
I was wondering what is the best method to restore some of the rusted metal on our travel trailer. Should I use a wire brush and rattle can, or do something else? ...

I have had decent luck with Rust Oleum Rust Reformer in the spray can. Our stabilizer jacks and stairs tend to develop surface rust like yours, so I get underneath once or twice a year and touch up the bad spots. I would hit the worst rust with a wire brush first time around.
Rust Oleum has a similar product that is available at most hardware and big box stores that works pretty good but the V2100 System is industrial grade and seems to hold up better. I have seen it at specialty paint stores, but usually order it by the case from Granger or McMaster Carr to get a better price. We live by the beach, so we have to stay ahead of the underneath of everything - trailer, truck, cars, tools, etc.
