Nice trucks. POR 15 seems to be the go-to best, most serious way to deal with rust. It's what I'm planning to do (except where I'm lazy and use rustoleum spray paint).

Captain McAllister posted:Yeah, POR-15 doesn't like UV exposure, and can be picky about prep work. They are definitely quite serious about their instructions and you’re right about the UV exposure too.

WTFBEES posted:I've heard conflicting things on this and it has me concerned. Did you use the POR Metal Prep before the coating? I've got a gallon of it here and ready to go hoping that'll do the etching and make it work. Yeah, not arguing with stormdrain, but my experience following all the instructions to the letter with por15 is it works really well. It’s also a pain in the rear end.

You got a little something on your face. Not so much here or here as… uh, right there. What are you going to do with rust protection for the frame?

WTFBEES posted:It'll be a little while before I get to it, but the frame is getting POR15. I think I've got everything to follow the recommendations here including: fwiw, on the little por15 cans you should still just use two layers of saran wrap on them - one that goes into the can and touches the por15 so it stays fresh and then another that does the same for the cap so the cap itself doesn't get stuck to the can.

Still enjoying the thread, but this is just blowing my mind. I know I should be able to accept and internalize facts that differ from my experience but…

Tailgate weld looks quite good. Still enjoying this but don't have much to contribute.
