Yes, I am very happy with the Rustoleum finish. just as a gauge, I dropped a 1/2" socket driver from approx. 2 foot onto a section of the frame and it did not chip whatsoever. I cleaned the frame by, 1. powerwashing it after soaking the greasy areas with Simple Green (undiluted), and 2. after the frame was dry, again going over the entire frame with degreaser. 3. then I wire brushed the biggest part of the loose scale off, the 4. degreased again, and lastly 5. blowing it completely dry with high pressure air. nothing special and done on the cheap! but the frame looks so much better.

I would have coated the frame with POR15, but I want to be able to remove the coating someday when I do a complete cab off resto and sandblast the frame to bare metal. POR15 is a b!tch to remove even with an industrial sandblast unit!!

hope I could help!
