So I noticed my rear axel was getting some rust on it and that's not purdy and it's obvious being lifted. @S0CAL recommended por-15, which looks like great stuff, and he forced me to start a build thread, so here it is....
I've read the instructions and plan on doing full prep. Looking to do the rear axle, rear sway bar, and driveshaft to start. I'm sure I'll find more to do once I crawl under there and inspect.
Getting ready to order the stuff and debating on the color. I'm going to do a top coat as it's recommended for uv protection and extra durability. Their top coats im considering come in gloss black, chassis black (I assume is more matte black), and clear. Truck is brilliant black. Base coats that I'm considering are gloss black, semi gloss black, or silver (would do black top coat but figured this would help to ensure I didn't miss any spots with the topcoat).
Thoughts on color? I'm wondering if gloss black would look awkward. Also a bit concerned if I got with silver base, that if I don't apply the top coat at the appropriate time, it may flake the topcoat leaving silver portions exposed?
I'll take pics and update through the process. Thanks in advance for any opinions or tips!
