This is true. Most rust starts under the paint and by the time is shows up,
its done a lot of damage. I was told once to use an automotive paint first.
Any color from the miss mixed bin and pay as little for it as possible then
paint your O.D. over that. This way you have a waterproof paint layer
between the metal and the porous O.D. paint.
At least that's what I'm going to do when I get ready to repaint the XM211.
