I agree with Andy. I did mine myself, sandblast, paint with eastwood chassis black over a moisture curing urethane called MasterSeries silver permanent rust sealer. But then my frame had some heavy rust scale on it and needed it badly. turned out great. If I do another frame, I'll pay someone else to do the blasting cause that was a real b****!
