Yes, new rust is a concern after the OA treatment. My approach is to treat the dry frame with zinc phosphate and store it indoors until I can paint it. The product I use is POR 15 Metal Prep.

Good info, thanks. Zinc phosphate, thanks for that, will get some ASAP. Hopefully no adverse impact with the guy who will do the actual painting.
