powdercoating poll - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm too far along on my truck now, but I've felt bad about not having it powder coated since I made the desicion, and I wanted to see what standard everyone else reguards their restoration by.

I had my frame glass bead blasted here locally, and then painted it with eastwood's primerless chassis black epoxy (about 20 cans of it all in all)

Have I screwed up? I mean what is the standard? We do have other project cars, but this is the only one I have a clear shot at of even getting finished in a reasonable time, and as I've said before, for every good resto of these trucks I see, theres about 5 bad ones, and I dont want to be one of the bad ones because of mistakes like this
