If the metal is ferrous the best stuff I've ever seen is made by Zep. It's called Iron Clad and comes in a spray can. It goes on kind of heavy and leaves a coating that is self healing so if the object is scratched, etc the stuff flows back over the bad spot. The most telling thing I've used it on was a housing where I sand blasted a sealing surface and then had to wait on the customer to decide wether to complete the repair or not. The housing sat outside for more than 2 years and the spot I had blasted and then coated with Iron Clad never rusted. I've also used it on things like a D9G's dead axel that was in the weather for over a year with no rust.
Like I said, I've used the stuff many times over the years to protect polished, blasted, etc objects that had to set out in the weather, and it has yet to let me down. If this stuff can protect something as well when it's left out in the open as well as it does, then it ought to do even better protecting an object that's even partially kept under cover.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
