Looking at a few products and wanted to see if anyone has used them for stop rust. I'm using it everywhere like internal door panels and the underbody of the truck

3m Rust Fighter
Boeshield T--9
CRC heavy duty rust

Or any other rust stopper in a spray can

I used 3M rustfighter (black spray paint) on lots of parts of my F150 and it seemed to work well.

I'm leaning toward the boeshield because it is not conduct and save to use around or on electrical like the window controls inside the door

True...If your looking to encapsulate it or chemically stop it from rusting further you could also try Permatex Rust Treatment. This is an option if the metal has become too corroded but you don't want a hole in the body. It alters the rust (science stuff) and turns it into a hard metallic black surface.

Honestly I'm just looking for an undercoating product that is waxy and keep oxygen from getting to the rust so it will stop the rust

Research Loctite extends rust treatment. Good stuff but not cheap.

That's what I thought untill I show that it "doesn't stick well if you ever was your undercarriage"

May be a professional undercoating would do the truck for you? I am looking into it myself.
