What paints to use to improve sump and various rusty fittings in engine area?

I used smooth hammerite on mine after a scrap off of flaking paint with an old wood chisel.

A good direct-to-rust paint like Hammerite, Jenolite or Rust-oleum?

 

[Richard n Ann]

I'd spray it with lithium grease

Pardon our interruption...

Paint will only flake off.

Many thanks for suggestions.

I used wax oil protects against any new rust and stops any old rust in its tracks.

plus shows I am not hiding anything.
comes in clear or black.

the entire underside has been done the same. Easy for anyone to see any repairs ect.
