Frame ~ Powder Coat Or Paint ?

[KMC3420]

I say blast it, epoxy primer, then paint it with a two part chassis paint that includes a hardener for durability. I used Extreme Chassis Black by Eastwood, single stage, and it chips somewhat easy as I reassembled my frame, I had to touch up a few spots. If I could do it over again, I would opt for a chassis paint that had an activator or a hardener for it, just for a more durable finish. Just my two cents.

Professional paint , chassis or otherwise , always has hardener added to the paint cup .
I called Paco and his wife says she told him no powder coating ~ I'll go by in a few days to make sure the message was received ~ she says she up dated my Repair order to indicate I want epoxy primer and black paint on the frame .

it this job goes well , I'll have him address my Metropolitan FHC and maybe even my old Mercedes Coupe as the rust hole below the back light is beginning to worry me .
