If you can strip it and clean it well, go to a powder coater and have it finished. This puts a plastic coat on it with good adhesion.

90% of a successful paint job of any type is cleaning and surface preparation.

On the cheap end I have had good luck with spraying with Rust-O-leum (spelling?) or similar products.
