I had two bin roofs and 7 rings sprayed two summers ago. Painter said you need a tar based product to "kill" or stop the rust. Sort of sounded like it seals it up. Paint sprayed on dark and aluminum came to the top making them look shinny. Said they would probably last 6 to 8 years before rust would start coming through again. He didn't spray to heavy of a coat. I have seen weeds and brush up against neighbors bins and it will eventually rub the tar based paint off. If you have never seen anyone spray a bin it is fast. They have a lightweight pipe with a spray nozzle on the end. Pipe is light so they can hold a 10 foot length of pipe. Did the roofs by just walking around the cap of the bin while a helper held his free hand supporting him. Sides of a 7 ring bin were done off of a ladder. Top 1/2 with the ladder and bottom 1/2 from the ground. $500 did one complete bin and the roof of another. I have brushed on some aluminum tractor rim type paint on some bin repairs I have made and it has actually held well too. Gave it two good coats.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
