Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I went out tonight to see how it was drying. I was shocked to see it turned dull. I opened a new can. Maybe they sent me the wrong black. It was supposed to be gloss. I'm calling POR-15 tomorrow morning. :banghead: :m6:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Thanks Allan. I might have to do it all over again. I wonder if I could spray gloss black over the flat POR-15.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Looking good !
Thats not cool about the POR-15, Do they offer it in non gloss ? It could have been a bad batch, Not Cool. Specially with all that labor into it already. None the less, Killer progress and thats going to be very nice !! |

That sucks Dennis,,,,
Could you spray a clear coat???? |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
you can and should top coat POR especially when it is going to see daylight.....I know the frame probably won't see daylight though

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I just got off the phone with POR-15. He said that Semi Gloss is inconsistent, and that's there version of Semi Gloss. I asked if it would work to paint over it. He said yes, but I should scuff it up first. I have another unopened can of the same stuff, and he said I could exchange it for Chassis Black. MORE WORK & TIME LOSSED :m6:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I just sprayed over the POR-15 with rattle can Rustoleum Gloss black. It looks better that the gloss black POR-15. It's not as durable as the POR-15 though, but it will never rust, and has a great base. Now I deserve that beer, but it's too early. :lol:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Since I can't get the 65 on the lift to finish the body mounts., I decided to work on the cab instead. I started to flare the drip rails. I hammered them down, and ground the high spots down, then DAed the paint off. Next I'll fill the gaps with a metal strip, grind smooth, and Bondo.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I almost forgot to tell all of you. I finally talked my Wife into selling our 2006 Subaru Outback, and buy another Corvette with what we get for it. Kelly Blue Book value is $24.660. I can buy a nice low mileage 2000 - 2004 C-5 Vette for what we get the Subaru. I am so excited. It will be our 10th Corvette. I've been without a Corvette for 5 years, and it's been killing me.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I only did it because the tire was ready to be replaced. Other wise I would have never done it. 10,000 more miles and I'll do it again. BTW, IT WAS FUN :lol:
