Firewall protection

["David A Templeton" <davidt@opentext.com>]

I know this question has been asked and answered. But I have to 
rebuild the clutch master cylinder and I figure while it is all apart I 
should claen up the peeling/rusted paint from the firewall.  

I know to remove all the pieces and then wire brush clean, maybe
even grind the rust away ;-(.    What do I want to do to protect, repaint
this area. I am in Canada and looking for supplies I can get here.

Thanks
