I've done both, epoxy and powder coat, and as stated above, paint is easier to touch up, and in some cases more durable.

The powder coat I recently did scratches easy. You can buff or polish it out, but epoxy doesn't scratch as easy.

Yes on clean up/reinforce the welds. You may even want to have it checked for straightness too.

Yes on Eastwood internal frame coating, but do it before assembly. The stuff is like a light green, and it can shoot out or ooze of holes/seams. You want to be able to clean it up after it shoots out.

If you powder coat, you may have to ream certain holes. The ones you ream you can hit with clear engine enamel so rust won't creep from that spot.
