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

Re: Before and After Frame Picture
Wow... what a difference! Be sure to post some after paint pics as well.
Good luck with the rest of the cleaning!

Re: Before and After Frame Picture
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.

Re: Before and After Frame Picture
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.
