Looks like surface rust to me. Id rough it up w/a d/a or wire wheel & a wire brush in the tight areas then give it some 2k epoxy primer w/a brush, especially since your concerned about it..

no
it won't protect it as good as the epoxy primer will

If it is adhesive, you'll be able to remove it with acetone. Easy to find out.

If it's just light surface rust hit it with Eastwood rust encapsulator ,for heavier rust or real deep pitting i like por-15 but you have to use the metal prep (acid) for it to work well because it wouldn't stick where you got the metal clean if you don't.
