Any advice on this.

I seem to be wiping the sides down a few times a week..I did have a lager going with my kegs which probably made most of the moisture..but wanted to get others experieces with a chest freezer coversion and moisture issues..

I've got the same problem. Freezer is brand new and showing some rust at the corners. Just aired it out this weekend and caulked the joints and I'm planning on some kind of moisture control. I was thinking I might be able to find bulk silica...?
 
I think the best bet is going to be a silica based product. Found this when looking to try and get an idea as to how much to use:

Container Size
Gallons Cubic Ft. Cubic In. Grams of Desiccant

1.1 or 0.14 or 237 Grams needed = 5
2.1 or 0.28 or 476 Grams needed = 10
3.2 or 0.42 or 714 Grams needed = 15
6.2 or 0.83 or 1,428 Grams needed = 30
12.5 or 1.67 or 2,856 Grams needed = 45
18.7 or 2.5 or 4,284 Grams needed = 60
25 or 3.33 or 5,712 Grams needed = 90
37.4 or 5 or 8,568 Grams needed = 135
50 or 6.66 or 11,424 Grams needed = 180
