Plus, the frame doesn't have to be sandblasted, just clean off all the dirt and scuff all the surfaces with a wire brush. It can either be thinned and sprayed with a gun, or simply brushed on right out of the can, which is what I do. It's certainly not show quality or nearly as tough as actual powdercoating, but it's perfect for a budget build and also allows me to tear only half of my truck apart at one time, and protects better than nothing or having to touch up spray paint weekly.

Ill have to look into that. I like the idea of just being able to brush it on. I did my rear end with rustoleum spray paint. I think my finger hurt for a month holding down the nozzle painting that whole thing lol.
