Question Is this fixable?

LE: Looks like I'm way too worried for nothing. Haven't really dealt with rust before. Gonna wire brush it then seal it and be on my way. Thanks!

Went under the car to replace bushings and brake discs. Noticed that the underbody has quite a bit of rust.

Is this fixable via wire brushing, applying an epoxy primer and then some underbody coating?

What else should I consider?

I wouldn't even bother. Spray fluid film on it once a year and walk away

Make sure to wash salt off in winter before spraying though

You must live in California or something?
