And your shared FABO post just proves once again how hard headed people are. But Leanna, you've always been gracious with your time and advice.

Leanna, thanks for comin by and clearin it all up. I wasn't aware powder coating was more more flexible. I guess that tells you all I've seen is crappy jobs. lol

That's a rare 1968 13/16 peedlesnorkel.

I'm gettin ready to blast the under side of mine and slob rustoleum everywhere. 27 bucks a gallon at Lowes. Anything with a snappy slogan is probably just tryin to get in your billfold.

Why not? My cowl was rusted just in front of the cowl vents, so I cut that portion out. I have a patch panel made for it, but like you I need to treat the inside. I can get to it GOOD since I cut the old out. You could very simply do the same.

I'm using regular Rustoleum oil based paint. It's tough as hell. It's the DTM (direct to metal) paint. I got it at Lowes for 27 bucks a gallon. There are other more expensive products, but properly applied, Rustoleum works great.

They will still have to come apart if you want to paint every nook and cranny. So to me, I wouldda just took um apart and blasted um and painted um separately.......but I must admit, the molasses works purdy good.

I would think you'd want the parts to be removed at the factory seams so that you could install them the same way. Shouldn't be TOO difficult to locate. the problem, like Like Propwash said, will be finding someone to remove them correctly. Good luck. I tell you a damn good place to start...

I'm not 100% sure. That's why I said "it's been my understanding" because I'm not sure about it. I DO know powedercoating is tougher than paint so it's stands to reason it cannot stand flexing as much. I wish Leanna would chime in on this. She is the Mistress of Metal.

The way I understand it is, powdercoat is much harder than paint, so that makes it brittle. You wouldn't want to powdercoat say, a frame for instance, since it will twist and tweak and possibly crack the powdercoat and cause it to get contamination under it. I may be wrong about that, but that's...

What you're looking for is called "Organisol textured black paint" and it's available most any paint shop.

...and please know I completely respect that you do it for a living. And I no doubt believe you are probably one of if not the best. I'ver looked at your site. Seen your work here. It's fantastic. But my guess is 75% or more of the people on this board cannot afford you. Not that you're too...

Donny, nobody has debated your ability. It's you who doubt everyone else's. There was a time when you knew not one damn thing about blasting. I certainly have learned a lot from your posts and I appreciate them very much, but there's no need to come off like you're the only one in the world who...

Not a damn thing.

Yeah me too. I'm disappointed.

I like them both. I cannot tell a difference in color. Maybe if I was there......

She's incorrect. It's called "Furious Fuchsia" and the paint code is HP. Also, it looks purdy danged close to me.

Yeah. Since that's about all that's made now, millions are successfully pulled every single day.

Let Cudachick do it. It will turn out better than you could ever imagine. http://phoenixspecialtycoatings.com/

I don't know how he's gonna drill out the broken bolt if the nut has broken loose. All it's gonna do is spin. Blow it out with a torch or plasma cutter. Simple and effective. Then window the frame rail and come in and weld a new nut inside and close it back up. The repair you have in mind for...
