REPAINTING METAL WINDOW FRAMES

Hi, I'm in the process of renovating an old 1920's commercial building for residential use. The structure has LOTS of rolled steel window frames which have, of course rusted over the years. I plan to remove all the old glass and putty, remove loose rust, prime, repaint, then reglaze with clear glass panes. My question is, What type/brand of paint should I use to avoid having to repaint for as long as possible? Are any of the available rust inhibitors worth applying? Thanks! -Len
