If the airframe products are too expensive, here's the poor painter's method: Clean surface. Treat with phosphoric acid based deoxidizer. Lately, I've been using water softener cleaner, the green liquid. Humidifier descaler also is phosphoric based and I believe Oshpho may make a conditioner. Prime with Sherwin-Williams DTM (direct to metal) Industrial Primer. I buy it by the gallon but maybe you can get it in quart or even sample sized containers. It can be tinted at the store to any color.
Good luck with your project.
