The back of the license plate was full of dirt and it took awhile to scrape down to the rust:

This is the bottom of the bumper, below the license plate, right after brushing it with some Picklex 20 rust treatment:

To protect the bumper, I painted it with Eastwood Co.'s Chassis Black:

I painted the bumper, and intend to paint the rest of the truck the same color as my old 55 GMC, primer gray:

I picked up the paint for $1.59 per can from McClendon Hardware. This should protect the bumper for the rest of the truck's life.
