Bare Metal?

From what I've learned, self-etching primer is a thing of the past. A good epoxy primer is as good as any available primer on the market today. However, I am not a professional body guy, but from talking to a few, I think the consensus is to use an epoxy primer over a CLEAN SURFACE.

If the surface is insufficiently scuffed, a self etching primer or a metal conditionerwould be a good idea.
+1 on the epoxy primer.
Aluminum is a little different.

I'll use the wire wheel and show you guys what I end up with. Then you guys can tell me what I should do from there.
Seriously, this forum is basically like my restoration manual, it's been great and awesome.

I'd hit it with the wire wheel to knock off any loose paint/scale, wipe it down with Ospho or some other rust converter, then hose it down with 3 coats of Rustoleum.
