Our warehouse that has dock levelers made of diamond plate steel. Whatever paint that was once on them has long since worn/rusted off.

I'd like to paint/coat them a nice grey to spiff up the loading dock area, and to prevent rust stains down the concrete on the outside of the building.

Any suggestions on a good product to use, that would hold up to forklift traffic?

Por 15, Rust Bullet, or our TruAlloy product that is launching soon -- but we can get it now

Wolverine Coatings' Bondtite 1101 primer is formulated for application to metal surfaces as well as concrete and would take care of future rust prevention. For added durability and cosmetic appeal follow up with a coat of LiquaTile 1143 CFLCeramic epoxy.
