Before and After Frame Picture
 
Sooo, I pulled the bed off of my truck a few days ago and just started digging into this thing. I'm planning on painting the frame with semi-gloss black, after I finish doing all of the prep work. Today I took the wire wheel to the top and sides of the frame and was amazed at how much of the stuff came off with just a smidge of elbow grease. Take a look for yourself at the before and afters and tell me what you think :D

Wow... what a difference! Be sure to post some after paint pics as well.

Good luck with the rest of the cleaning!

Will do, get the joy of spending about 115.00 on paint and prep products this Friday. Gotta love how Por-15 is pricey, hope it holds up to what I've heard about it.

No worries for you in that department. You will not be dissapointed with the por-15. Well worth the money spent for the kit. you'll see what i mean when you get the finished product. You'll never have to worry about it again.
