Undercarriage rust...Should I do something?

So on my 91 GTA the undercarriage and framerails have a decent amount of rust (as expected for a 20 year old car) the wheel wells have virtually no rust however. I was wondering, I have heard of people removing some of the rust and spraying some kind of aresol on? Any suggestions or is it fine as is? Thanks guys!

Re: Undercarriage rust...Should I do something?

the sooner you get rid of the rust, the better. i've used POR-15 with good luck, but there are a few other brands out there as well. prep is key - if you paint over the rust, you're just going to hide the issue as it gets worse
