chassis saver is awesome. u can paint it right over rust and it dries hard as a rock. just remember it is designed as a primer NOT a topcoat. so it will fade and get chalky looking over time if exposed to sunlight. POR15 is the same thing too.

So today I finally for the first time did something to the car. I actually did it in between fixing my cousins car and my project . I would of finished the other side on my car too but people see I'm in my garage out with my tools they think hey he is free and their goes my own time ,,lol
this is how it looked when I took fender off http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0948.jpg not pretty http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0949.jpg wow is worst than i thought, http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0950.jpg Rust http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0951.jpg |
I actually thought it wont look bad under the the metal fender thingy., but wow more surprise it cleaned up around kinda quick I didnt really have to grind it down like I thouht
http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0952.jpg More hole more rust http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0953.jpg and more rust hole not cool at all http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0954.jpg |
here is the piece I'm giving to my friend to duplicate while I work on the rust in my car so it can be ready when he is done , hopefully he dont finish fast like he always does. This will be my first resturation project and I wont give up Im tacking the worst first the rest is Alot more simpler and not as much RUST like in this area,
http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0956.jpg http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0955.jpg Got it cleaned up and Sprayed rattle can primer until im ready with all parts then Im going to use POR15 http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/r...t/IMAG0957.jpg |
Some of my family and friend make fun of me and say junk that rust bucket , and some say WOW I never ever seen one up close , I love the ones that say wow for the ones that are hating or dont know what passion is I'm ok with it. Once Im done I wont give the haters a ride lol.
