Painting Inside of Travel Trailer Bumper

I did a quick search on this subject and did not find anything.

I want to paint the inside of my new TT bumper, for two reasons; 1) Stop the rust, and 2) store the sewer hose inside it with causing rust stains on hose and rust particles rubbing thru the hose.

My plan is the made a giant swab from rags on a long handle. Remove as much particle matter in the bumper as possible. Swab the inside of the bumper with rust neutralizer and let dry. With second rag swab on a long stick spread a paint such as Rustoleum in the bumper and let cure.

Any suggestion out there that would be better? I would like to here them.
