Frame Paint

I am wanting to do some clean up and touch up on the frame. I can pressure wash to get it nice and clean but what paint to use? My first thought is grab some Krylon in rattle cans and have at it. Just want to lay a little rust protection though in SoCal rust isn't a big concern. Is there a something else you guys have used in the Krylon price range that might cover better or hold out a little longer?
Thanks,
Steve

Use rust reformer as a primer on any rust spots. Then top coat with the regular Rust-Oleum paint. This way the rust is neutralized and won't bubble up the new paint in a short time.

If you have a fair amount of rust then POR 15 works well.
Rust-oleum professional is the high performance enamel in the silver can.

Thanks guys, the Rustoleum seems simple enough for what I want to do. Rust isn't terrible, some patches and a little peeling buy no pitting.

I normally use automotive paint for things. For my frame I used Rust-oleum high performance enamel. Seems to hold up decently. What I like about it is the high output tip 50 percent faster coverage. You can get it at most retailers, I purchased mine at Wallyworld. It's in a silver can the regular enamel is in a white can.
