We have been using Sherwin Williams Industrial Enamel for years with great success. It is an oil based enamel that endures the Texas weather very well.
How long does the paint last?
It will last 5 years before needing to apply a maintenance coat.
How do you handle overspray?
The pressure pot spray system that we use does a good job in significantly reducing overspray. It is able to do this becuase we can control the fluid pressure as well as the air pressure independantly. Our painting guns are similar to how one would paint an automobile. Due to fences being outdoors there is the possibiliy of some overspray. In this case we use weighted drop clothes where necessary.
How do you prepare an iron fence for painting?

Reasons to paint your fence now versus later
The reason to paint your sooner rather than later is because steel rusts fast when not protected from the elements. To clarify, The quicker you apply the coating, the faster you stop the rust from spreading. Reduce the total repairs needed. In other words, when you consider your Allen iron fence painting project, the faster you address the spreading rust the easier it will be on the pocket book. Another key point is that paint wears away over time and continues to dissipate. It will cost less money to paint now that it will next year. Simply because it will require less material to cover the entire fence thus reducing cost.
Powder coat is not a superior coating
Powder coating has its strengths but it is not an end all solution. It wears away like anything else. When installing a new fence, its preferable to have everything coated like this because its convenient. An example is, all the fence panels are in a warehouse, which is easier to transport to a curing station or in other words, a big oven. There are many quality paints that are equal to if not better than powder coat. Overall, our experience with Lucas iron fence painting shows this to be true. For example, its not feasible to remove an entire fence by trailer to go bake it. Instead, using something like a quality Sherwin Williams Direct to Metal is a much better choice. Its cost effective and will last about 5 years before you need apply your maintenance coat.
