Frame Prep. and Preservation.
Hey Guy's , I know this is a little off from the Original subject but it lead into Rust control, Primer/Prep. so I have a Question, I've been away from Painting for quite awhile, I'm envious of Ya'll out in the Southwest, here in Sunny Florida ( Sometimes ) the Humidity is beyond words, on certain days you can sand or sandblast a part and actually see the part start to rust. A paint rep told me some years back they ran tests and it took 4 Seconds for the rust to start. Question ; I'm getting close to putting my frame in primer ,I've been putting it off while I fabricate and weld on the numerous small brackets and mounting points for all of the little stuff that needs to be added. Just having a heck of a time contending with all of the Rust. I plan on using PPG Color ( Pearl Orange ) and would like to stay with their products throughout the project, I want the frame to Look as good as the body, ( 32 3 Window Highboy ) What Primer is recommended and do I use a Hi Build ? Epoxy ? or What ? Sand ,or Blast,Metal Prep/Rinse/Degrease/Dry& Prime ?
Thanks Timskiball

OOOOPPPSSSS! PPG products. DP is their epoxy primer line, e.g. DP40LF, DP90LF, etc. K's are the high build primer/surfacers, e.g. K36 and so on.Originally posted by Tim Guzowski
DP's / K's ?
Thanks again TimYour Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
