Default Rusting bathroom baseboards

3 boys in the house and the baseboard is only a few inches from the side of
the toilet = splahed urine and rusty baseboard. I have painted these
before with Rustoleum spray, but it only looked good for a short time. Is
there another type of paint, or maybe a clearcoat I could use to stop this?


Boys will be boys. Talk to them in any case as you have to take them to
public places and other folks' homes.

Now, if you prepare the baseboards (sanding and or steel wool) and prime
them and then paint them, they will hold up for years unless they are
rusting through from the back.
