Rust Prevention

I am having my 79 F-100 sanblasted monday and would like to put a good rust preventer primer on it right after. I want a system that is simple and can be blocked and painted over. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

As long as it is sandblasted correctly ANY self etching primer will do fine

OK thanks, The guy said hes using shells to blast it with. I only have a couple small areas that has rust through the metal, the rest is just surface rust ( unless the blasting exposes something I cant see now) I want to have it treated quickly then take it to the painter and let him do his thang. Can I put rust preventer over an etching primer or do i need to put it on first. Im looking at POR-15, products from Eastwood and Rust Bullet

I did por15 on mine on the problem areas, where they typically rust out. Then epoxy primer and then 2k high build primer.
