Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
Make sure you guys top coat the por because it does not like uv light and turns a milky grey color.. Ask me how I know..

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
never topcoated a frame and it doesnt flake off.... I doesnt see direct sun unless i was to roll it...and if that happened the thing would be junk anyhow..
I prefer the flatish surface anyhow.. the last one i did I shot the whole sucker with Cosmoline... its just like factory fresh with that nice sticky gooey film

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
You really like that silver color, don't ya?
I kinda liked it to but not enough to leave it that way. I ordered another quart of black top coat because I ran out.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
You get a chance to see more detail with it being a lighter color but maybe that's not a good thing...dunno.
Was that your primer? Did ya use the same system as chevyman63 did? Or did you change your mind and decide ya liked it black better? Quote:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
That was the masterseries rust sealer primer, then I did the glossy topcoat... That primer is very very tough... www.nomorerust.com
mine's not UV stable either but for a frame they said it would be fine... I just try to avoid leaving it all day exposed...
