A few years ago we built a makeshift VW rail buggy thing and it turned out really nice so we decided to just clearcoat it. That way we can see every weld every crack and cranny but yeah it was protected against rust and stuff like that.
I had a friend that powder coated his car. Totally hid the cracks and yes, off-road race cars do get enough hard hits to eventually crack. We had to grind off powder coating to fix!!

Yes, we need to take the car apart and do that.
Kuddos to Ty & Luke for helping. I’m sure the Jimco will be shining soon.
Cleaning is a necessary Evil. I have always hated cleaning. LOL
It’s not very fun.
Have you heard of Matt's off-road recovery or Fab Rats
Yes, I really like their channels!
Gotta earn the seat time with elbow grease! Hate the PNW sitting rust.
Why wasn't it powder coated when it was built
