That's a very large area, so whatever treatment you choose should not
be an expensive one.


Indeed, a major consideration. :-)

I would be tempted to remove any loose rust with a wire brush then use
Kurust to stablise what rust is left behind. Then apply your chosen
paint system, preferably finishing in a colour that won't show any
areas of rust that break through. In other words, not white. ;-)


I'm looking at Matt NATO green, should fit the situation perfectly, and
it's relatively cheap :-)

A good choice. Apply with a roller, and a brush to cut in?


Thanks for the comments.



You're welcome.
