Hey all,
I'm going to be installing a new tow receiver on the '88 soon. the frame seems to be in good shape with just some surface rust. been thinking about doing some underbody coat while i'm down there - probably after drilling the holes
I don't have a pressure washer but have osc. multitool and angle grinder - how much should the frame get cleaned up before spraying? To be honest if I wasn't down there bolting the receiver I wouldn't be worried about cleaning things up.
Additionally, any advice for a good underbody coat? I've got some left over: bed liner spray, rust resolving spray, rustoleum spray paint, and some self etching primer. Obviously they also make rubberized undercoating spray but unless someone swears by it I'll just go with other stuff laying around
It's pretty wet and cold this time of year where I'm at too - spray paint usually cracks/ripples when it's cold so that's just another consideration
cheers
