The various BA companies used various, or no, protective finish on their 
steel chassis.

I have several RX and TX I would like to remove all the top mounted items 
and then remove the rust with Prep Step or wire brush. Then seal with Zero 
Rust Red Oxide. Now I can be assured the rust is gone or sealed and now I 
need a paint that mimics the factory appearance.

Any ideas? Eastwood has some interesting paints but I havent tried any yet.

And then there are the various box store selections.
