flat or semi gloss industrial paint?

Post by layedout72 »

I am about to have a lot of work done on my little toyota and I would like to coat the frame with something that won't chip or scrape off when I put it on the ground.

I know there is por 15, but is there something similar, thats more easily sprayed? You cannot spray por15 from a normal gun if I remember correctly. I was thinking maybe an industrial enamel or epoxy?

You can get a rubberized spray which coats fairly nicely. Keeps out rust. Im not sure where you would find it in the states.

I've used roll-on bedliner on several projects and been very happy. You can even use brush if it's somewhere tight. Use the little foam rollers. banjo.

Try zerorust.com
Comes in a spray can and a reg. can you can spray with a gun. IIRC, it's about $8 bucks a can, but don't quote me on that. I think I'm going to use it on my truck.
