paint the chassis and inner fenders under my blazer? I have been to the car wash with oven cleaner a dozen times - on my hands and knees getting all the grime off the underside of my K5. Now, it's clean but the brown/red oxidized steel is showing. I love the virgin qualities of this rig but it would look a whole lot better with a coat of Eastwood chassis black under there. Thing is, you can't unpaint it and I have resisted doing other things to preserve the originalty. Am I right to leave it, or should I paint it and not worry about it?
