Frame paint question
 
I just got my sub frame, inner fenders, rad support and control arms back from the sandblaster. What's my best bet for paint.... Por15???

I use SPI black epoxy on all my projects

After 40+ years of using black spray paint I have found Mercury Marine's Phantom Black to the best covering easiest to use. Available at most all boat dealers.

I used <gasp> Rustoleum primer and satin black in rattle cans. Seven years later, it is still fine.

POR 15 will not hold up extremely well on bare, clean metal.
Rattle can Krylon #1613 looks very nice....try it, you'll be suprised. And it holds up extremely well over the years.

Epoxy primer in satin black. Very durable and easy to touch-up if needed...even use it on the roll bars.

Thanks guys, I figured the por15 was the way to go but seems paint is like asking what oil do you use, lol.

por 15 works best on rust, not clean metal. I would not use that.
I use rattle can paint like mentioned here.
Doing it like that for many years, east touch up.

You might consider powder coating. Really tough stuff.

Powder coat was the initial plan but once it's chipped or scratched it's not as easy to touch up than paint.
