    once we get some dry days im going to fluid film the inside as much as I can.
    the thing was so full of rust it was crazy, I vacuumed out hand fulls of rust hahaha so I drilled some holes in the bottom of it so that water actually had a place to drain out.

    Have you considered a flat black rattle can job? It would be scotch bright pads to scuff up the current paint then the rattle can to get it on. You would spend $40 or so
