Are you using spray guns?

Any more ideas guys?

Are you removing the engine??

[omy]

Yes, I have removed the engine. The gearbox is still in the car though.

So yea_ strip it out.
Heavy degreaser onto it. Hot high pressure would be tops.
Rub down with thinners.
A good prime
And then paint.
If your doing large areas gun will be cheaper than can..

Also while it's apart pay special attention to the seams.
I'd be apply a rust converter and sealer to them for long jeverty
