Painting a Sandblasted Swimming Pool Steel Coping

I am replacing the Vinyl liner in my swimming pool. The pool was built in the late 60's and the metal coping around the top appears is rusted. The corroded parts are definitely a brownish red so I am confident that it must be steel. I am having it sandblasted but I have been given conflicting answers on the best way to repaint.

Any ideas?

Please tell us the conflicting info you received and perhaps we can help resolve the misunderstanding. To do otherwise cannot do anything but generate still more conflicting information, Michael.
