    I've been thinkin' about having the entire underside and frame shot with Inyati on my next project. Rustproof, bulletproof and it's a sound-deadening material.

    Just a thought for ya, John Deere Blitz Black was formulated to be a frame component coating. Flat finish (but not too flat) super durable, easy to clean.

    Have also heard of folks using POR15 & sometimes truck bedliner materials (like RhinoLiner or the like) for extreme protection & durability.
    I dig ALL cars, old & new, whether they were hammered out of american iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things.

    But thats just my opinion.

    Powder coating is nice, but if it's on a driver and you do get chips, it can only be touched up with paint. It is a very tough finish, but it will get chipped if driven.

    frame coat

     



    I just talked with my paint supplier. And he has a bed liner kit
    with 2 quarts of white liner. That you ad automotive color too. Says it will do a small pickup bed.
    It is 70.00 for the liner, Then the paint would vary. And 20.00 for the disposable gun.
    Not bad.
