Mostly all your paint systems breathe, even epoxy, if it breathes it will rerust eventually.
thanks for checkin it out. to be honest i just hate the ugly dirty rusted look when the firewall has paint..it just looks off. i bet even after me degreasing it and hitting it with my pressure washer will probably make a world of difference. but, i want to at least put something on it. was hoping some rattle can would make it look at least presentable when i open the hood.
