I used rustbuster 121 epoxy underneath and the 421 on top and inside. Its not the cheapest but i had seen good reviews in practical classics. Its very thick so does require thinning quite a lot to spray it.

For truely bare metal I personally use 2K etch primer first. It's not high build like a normal primer (which goes on after the etch but only when I'm ready) but keys to bare metal much better.
Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

Most "normal" rattle can primers are, like most other primers,porous and absorb moisture from the air.This will spoil the final finish.

Evening all , epoxy is the way to go if you can ! But my got make sure you have a good mask / ventilation , but that's said with any 2k product.
