The American POR may well have a product that would be suitable

If you are referring to POR15, on steel that is some amazing stuff.

It is supposed to adhere to most anything metal.

In some cases they say to use a cleaner then a metal prep with POR15 next. It is pretty amazing, POR15 does not like to come off, and it especially likes to attach to skin. And clothes, forget it.

When I did my window frames, I recall fine sanding them then spraying Rustoleum on. My frames had all the OEM black worn away, the windows looked silver and of course I had the curse of the PO Silicone Sealant cure. ( Rolling Eyes ) But once I had the Silicone Sealant off and it was rough sanded, the paint went on easily and has been there since 2007 with very little problems. I haven't tried to dig my fingernail into the paint since I didn't think it would ever see that kind of treatment but I was once told that to test a good spray paint job to use your finger nail and apply pressure and run over the paint. A good paint job will not flake. I TOOK THEIR WORD FOR IT.
