It has been sitting in my garage covered for about 3 years, and I guess I should have coated it with cosmoline or something, just figured the paint would have kept it a little better than this. Anyway, what do yall recommend for paint? Of course I'll sand it first. Any complications or setbacks I should expect? I'm running my wife out of the workshop room (concrete box with windows) that was added onto the house. She's been using it as a chicken rearing room, but now we have some broody chickens again. Gonna use it as a knife making workshop, and I'd rather use a wood stove that I already have rather than a diesel heater and getting high. Luckily the previous owner had the foresight to add a 6" liner in the concrete about 6 or so feet up the wall, and built it up like a chimney.
That's not totally unexpected...high temp stove paint doesn't prevent rust too well when exposed to moisture...just polish it up using some scotchbright and spray it with high temp stove paint
