Painting Rusty Metal Doors?

I have Bilco cellar doors. No matter what anti-rust paint or treatment I use, the rust still breaks through the paint. Is there any product out there that will work to prevent rust from breaking through--either a special primer and a final coat or whatever anyone uses that works. Thanks.

I would suggest you remove the rust. You could sand it off, but that would take a long time. The fastest way would be to rent something from your local hardware store. Then paint with rustoleum or something similar. If you don't remove the rust all you are doing is covering it up for a bit. When it flakes the paint will just come right off with it. Maybe some kind of epoxy paint would work better. I'm not sure, but sand, scrape, or wire brush the rust off.
