Durabak and a frame

[DieselFJ]

I did some research and I couldn't find anyone who has Durabaked their frame. I was thinking of doing that because of how durable it is as well as how well it adheres. It would also be easy to touch up if it gets scuffed offroad. What is the opinion of others who have used it, and has anyone done it?

Thanks
Scott

Dunno about doin the frame, Ive got experience with undercoating the fenderwells and interior cabin. I used por 15 and it seems to do the job. Two upsides, first its damn hard and second its a slick finish so mud and salt seems to release a litte easier.
Just a thought

a little further down than half way there is a pic of a guy who did his frame. It is entirly possible. I don't think I would do the textured stuff like this guy did because durabak offers a smooth finish. But that is just me.

Definitely DONT go with the textured finish. Its a PITA as it is getting dirt off of it in wide open spaces. Think about how much mud and whatnot will collect in there.

I also wouldnt go with durabak on the frame. Por15 or Rustbullet are more than enough protection and are meant to prevent and stop rust as where the bedliner isnt.

Thanks for the info, I think that por15 or rustbullet is probably the way to go after reading this thread. Is there a certain product that you would suggest? Por15 said it is UV sensitive and needs a topcoat, what would be a good topcoat? Does Rustbbullet need to be top coated?

Again thanks for your help

I did my frame with Magnetpaints and it turned out very well. That stuff doesnt want to come off for nothin. I had to scrape away some of it to make a good ground for the starter...not a pleasurable experience.

Rustbullet is a bit eaiser to work with in my experience and also dosent need a topcoat. Check out their site.
