Default Is waxoyl worth it?

Was thinking about buying a few cans of this waxoyl stuff. I like the idea of no rust but seems a little good to be true? Typical fiesta is showing some rust on the arches now, I've cleaned it up and am going to paint it once again but if I bought some waxoyl would it prevent the rust coming back? I also had to have some welding done on the chassis for previous MOT and been looking at quotes for getting the whole thing waxoyled but if it's not worth it no point. What you guys reckon?

If the rust is already there, then it's too late to protect.

It may slow any further rusting, but once rust as started the only way to stop it dead is to remove it completely and then protect with paint, waxoyl etc.

Its good for squirting in the chassis legs and other parts which are hard to get. The underseal/wax oil is good for putting on the vehicles floors and Inner arches.
