Stopping rust in its tracks.

I was underneath my truck the other day and noticed some stout looking rust on parts of the frame and some advanced surface rust on the driveshaft and rear axel.I'm not sure how deep some of it may be but,I do know this frame is like an inch thick of solid steel so I don't need to worry about it disintegrating tomorrow.I keep hearing about products like Rustoleum and such coatings that cover/stop rust and solid everything up. Does this Rustoleum stuff actually work? Is this something I need to have done at a shop or is it something I can do personally? What are my options as far as my rear axel and driveshaft rust go? Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks guys.
