Never heard of that. I've used Rustoleum primer years ago (and still use some on small parts). It eventually gives up when up against the elements.

Epoxy primer under that acrylic enamel should do the trick. The epoxy seals the metal against the elements and the enamel protects the epoxy against degradation from sunlight, etc. That's what I used on my frame.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
