After removing the rust and welding new pieces to the passenger door frame, i brushed on an automotive epoxy primer, this is the best stuff going ! I used a quality sikkens 2k epoxy sealer, this is non porous unlike most other primers, this means aslong as the metal is free of rust and prepped good, the primer will protect against rust better than anything that came on these from the factory !
