          There are several options depending on how extravagent you want to get.  If a brush is all you want POR 15 is your best bet.  If you have a place to spray you could go with a zinc rich epoxy with a nice epoxy color/gloss of your choice.  That would give you great corrosion protection.  Powder Coating isn't all it is cracked up to be unless the pretreatment IE sandblasting is near perfect and the coater doesn't cut corners in the baking process.  If the powder is undercured it will provide less protection than a good coat of rustoleum over a wire brushed surface.  My $.02 and 22 years in the field of corrosion protection.

  My brother is having his frame sand blasted before welding in motor mounts and braces, after  he is finished he was asking is there anything beside powder coating that can be done, like paint. I have seen here that there is another option to powder coating. Any suggestions for him to  think about.  This is on a '40 Chevy Business Coupe, 350 sbc.  
  Thanks  Darrell
