How many of those 7 years have been driving with rocks hitting it etc? Another thing to keep in mind, I bet your 7 year ago made POR is not of the same quality as today's. Here is a pic of part of the frame that peeled. Other areas around that spot are glued on. Then you have more peeling next to it. I found these awesome spots while scuffing the por to top coat it. Luckily for me, from the leaf spring hangers back I used acid etch primer, then applied the por. All that stuck fine. I scuffed all that with 80 grit and then applied raptor liner. It should be good to go now. From the front shackles forward the customer wanted smooth and shiny. I should have messed up and just applied raptor liner to it too. It would have been done last week! Keep in mind this is on a 550hp diesel mall crawler. (If it matters) Haha

I have stripped the peeling por with paint stripper and wire wheels. Hopefully in the morning I can mask it all off and get it shot. Then it will be time to paint trans, tcase, and then assemble the engine.
