Re: Frame paint
Eastwood rust encapsulater works good. Used Rust Oleum enamel on my last project and it has held up good for what it is. The best is a good automotive paint but is spendy for a driver.

Re: Frame paint
I had my GTO frame powder coated. The body guy that did my GTO also mentioned using POR15 as an alternative, and he used it on his own cars.
