Frame cleanup?

Got my truck striped down to the frame. Plan on high speed wire brush and/or sandblasting to clean it up. After everything is clean I am going to use Eastwood's Corroless (Rust Encalsulator) then is where I have a question. What should I top coat with? Rattle can or should I get something to spary with a gun? I'm not building a trailer queen but I want it to look good and last. I know a lot of people undercoat the frame but it is going to be a toy so I want to have a super clean look.

I did the same thing and used the eastwood chassis paint. I looks really good and very much worth the time.

I used the rattle can that came with the kit. You would never know. You wouldn't believe how well it turned out. I wish I had access to a digi cam so I could post what it looks like. It turned out very nice.
