what would be the correct procedure on painting rusted swaybars and components?
sand down to the metal, prime? with what? then enamel paint?

i would imagine you would need to get the rust off lol. i would put a couple coats of rust encapsulator or other rust inhibitor and then spray whatever u want over it.

either sand down prime and paint with a strong rust paint or just slap some por15 to it

i sand blasted my front and rear bars, then cleaned them with a solvent to get any oils and dirt off the surface... last primed and painted.
