what to paint over rusted metal with
#4

I have experience with this issue. I built many truck bodies, the ones coated in bedliner rusted many times faster than the traditionally painted bodies.

Bed liner products trap moisture between the liner and the steel. Now this only happens if the liner coating is compromised. Given that you'll never fully encapsulate the steel in this coating I say it's a bad choice.

Power wash, dry, apply a POR rust converter type product, paint as normal. I would suggest an enamel.


This is just my opinion.
