Re: Frame Coating

[Vinnie Moscaritolo <vinnie@domain.elided>]

I am in the process of restoring my floor pan and I used the POR-15 stuff. 
I got the idea from a friend who is restoring his old corvette (in the most 
anal way possible).  He painted his frame with the POR-15 and I really 
liked the result.
I swore that on my NEXT scout I will start by tearing it down to the frame 
and rebuilding it back and in the process restore the frame that way. (not 
to mention the tub)

What he did to prep it was first remove all the gunk (sand blasted) and 
then clean again with Marine Clean (or mean green) , then prep the metal 
with a zinc-phosphate, then painted (actually brushed on) the POR-15. This 
stuff is really hard and wont't ever rust again.

I found it on the web at http://www.por15.com.


good luck
