Just regular base coat clear? Por 15? rustoleum ? Powder coating is too expensive for my set budget on this. So what do you all suggest? This is not original.

It's inexpensive, easy to touch up, and who's gonna ever see it? Rustoleum is surprisingly tough when it's fully cured - feels almost like powder coat.

A flexible type finish is best for frames that tend to flex. If the proper steps aren't taken with POR good adhesion may be problematic down the road.

Unless you are going for a full restoration with car show quality pain job you can't beat it for price and durability. As miraclepieco said, easy touch up also. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2018 Posts: 2 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Dec 2018 Posts: 2 | Which product(s), specifically? The Endura product line is long and full of options! Thanks, Sweet47Poppy | | |
