Rusting utility trailer needs refinishing

I have a five foot by ten foot steel sided utility trailer that needs to be refinished, any thing that will last longer than paint that a DIYer could do in the driveway?

Hi, Cameron. I'd go with cold galvanizing compound Cold Galvanizing Compound / Zinc Rich Paint. The zinc will assist in preventing rust at scratches, which seem inevitable on utility trailers.
