I have had a hard time sandblasting, but I did do the firewall and the underneath...
After grinding, welding and fine tuning the bottom of the tub, I prepped, epoxy primed and seam sealed. It came out soooo nice. This is a 7 month mile Stone and it feels good to have a zero excuses, rust free body!
Next was U-pol raptor liner time. It had the best reviews on Amazon so I picked up the 8 liter kit with the U-pol gun for under $200.
I've never done this before so I taped everything off and thankfully put card board down. There's not much over spray, but it does drop to the ground at your feet.
This is one bottle so far. I jambed everything thoroughly first. It was suggested to me to black out the underside, then line it. I thought that was an expensive use of paint. Just do a good job and you will see no gray primer.
If you've never painted before, no worries. This uses none of those skills. ANYONE can do this. The suggested pressure was 60. But 95psi worked best for me. I used an air dryer too.
Early in the cure. Hoping the darker spots blend in...
I also blasted, epoxy primed and 2k urethaned some parts. Booster, m/c, steering gear and some dash parts...
