POR-15 is one of these preps. Painted right onto rust it arrests the oxidationa dn leaves a black paintable surface that is UV sensitive if you don't prime and paint it.

Don't know the name, but I have heard about it from numerous people I know. I think it might be available from the obvious paint stores, hardware stores and auto parts stores.
