I want to get the rust off my suspension members and paint them, but I don't know what is the best paint to use. The car is for everyday use not showing so I want something that is robust to the environment and will hold the rust at bay for a while.
Any suggestions?

You can buy chassis paint. Sticks well, easy to apply and lasts
I suppose though it depends what you're painting. Downside if not using a self sealing product then once damaged rust works really fast underneath it
