Question clean and seal frame

Want to cab off and clean and seal frame. Any product better than the next? Prime and paint? Air craft paint? No powder coat, too many $$$$.

Re: clean and seal frame

I used some PPG paint: ALK-110/ALK-201 Industrial alkyd Enamel
The link to the product information is below.
http://www.ppg.com/cr-refinish/phase...indProduct.asp

A buddy of mine at a big body shop in Houston turned me on to this product. He has used it on several frame offs and has had nothing but good results from the product. I can tell you, the paint goes on really easy, and sticks to anything and everything. However, this is a type of paint you want to apply in a booth or outside where you don't mind overspray laying down.

Re: clean and seal frame

A great low-buck way to clean it is with easy-off oven cleaner. It takes it right down to the metal!

Re: clean and seal frame

I just ordered the stuff Ace sugested so i'll post some pics when min is done also.. I'm just degreasing, pressure wasing and using a 4" wire wheel to clean my frame.. I think in some spots i might have to break out the old craftsman sand blaster but i think the majority i can get with the wire wheel..
