That's exactly what I did when I doing the frame off restortation on my TR6.
After getting the frame sandblasted and performing necessary weld repairs, I
gave it a couple of wet coats of Hammerite SMOOTH Black as contrasted to the
"hammered" finish. I got a quart can at Home Depot. I thinned it down a little
and sprayed it on using a siphon cup gun attached to my air compressor. I am
very pleased with the results. Ended up doing the same to the entire
suspension!

Another alternative to consider, is trying to find "Hammerite" brand of
paint- originates from the UK; Is reported to do a fine job
I actually thought that I saw it in the Atlanta area recently; possibly
at Home Depot? I've been spending way too much time and money there!
cheers,
