I'd use etch primer on any repairs
Then stone guard
Then paint
You can over spray all the above with waxoil.

All the above is available in spray cans if you don't have access to a compressor and spray guns

I did that on the escort I recently sold;


I ran it white underneath for a year then became bored of cleaning it after most runs, then did this with black Waxoyl.



Good luck with it.

3m stuff is great too but pricey.
Then paint it all. Use bilt hamber s50 in the cavities. Any rusty bits use bilt hamber deox c ...amazing stuff...google it.....or the gel.
