Front beam paint

That I did.

I did paint my rear hatch today.. Sprayed it on. Light dust initially then a thicker.. Will require a few weeks I imagine at least to harden properly before I sand it and will add a final layer.

Feel the finish at present is nice. Happy for a home build rebuild/resto

Anyone tried MetaLine? Or would that be over engineering?

 

I use chassis black with zinc phosphate.

Realistically any black paint will do . Powdercoated or Raptor bed liner , rustoleum is good .. beams rust from the inside out

 

Indeed they do, especially the pressed "horns".

 

It does take a while
I get mine from a local agricultural supplier

Admirable skills and dedication chaps.

Being both old (life's too short) AND lazy, I am able to persuade myself that everything underside looks like poop after a couple of years of year round use whatever I do... so I don't bother... apart from the tubs which are easy.

An MOT inspector once suggested to me that if I made matching "covers" so it looked symmetrical, that rotting bit of sill/floor support near the back that's hard to get at couldn't be inspected and would look, at a glance, as it should be....
