About to do a complete rebuild on My "Esther" 03 S10 with 540k miles (STILL runs perfectly like new after yrs of work here and there). We've been to hell and back quite a few times but She's ALWAYS gotten Me to be where I needed to be. She deserves a LOT of Lovin' so I wanted to do a GREAT restore on the frame especially. Makes sense to use the farm paint b/c it's meant to LAST on something that's always outside working hard. Gonna cut w/mineral spirits like you showed (BRILLIANT MOVE DUDE!) and add hardener. It's been a while doing auto repair again but it's in My blood. I like the idea too of being practical w/guys like Us that just have simple tools and an idea. Here We go....gonna make this Lady dance again. 😎💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺
Wow that’s a lot of miles! Gotta figure you owe her some love for sure! Thanks for the kind words and for watching. Good luck with your project!
Me too, this week-end, I'm going to paint the rear frame of my Ram 2500 08 diesel with epoxy primer and I bought 1 gallon of Tremclad farm black! I can't wait to see the result!😊
@@ericbouchard22 Good luck! Let us know
Thanks for video. Need to coat underside of my 03 Z71. This is way more budget friendly.
@@panchopistolas2194 Thanks for watching, good luck with your project!
I like the farm implement paint line. I rebuilt a pair of locking hubs and used the red for a little more style. It held up great
I dumped a ton of fuel all over it today and then scrubbed it off, didn’t phase it one bit.
I just ordered some Ford Red tractor paint for my '88 Honda. The paint is a mess, and MAACO wanted way more than the car is worth. Time to experiment. I found this video very helpful.
I'm going to try Penetrol instead of mineral spirits.
Penetrol is good stuff! Dry time might be a little longer? But should flow out nicely. Would you report back and let us know how it worked out? Good luck!
I will keep you posted.
@@intheshoptv Well it turns out the paint, Penetrol and even mineral spirits are banned in California! Ordered all the supplies and the orders were cancelled. 😡
@@EdKrebs-jb7vo I try not to opine on things that are sensitive topics like regional restrictions and such, but in this case, I cant help myself - thats ridiculous
@@EdKrebs-jb7vo What a bummer! I really wanted to see how it would work out.
I just looked at the cost of the paint on Amazon and found that the same paint in the spray cans are cheaper than buying it by the quart.
@@tarewade9681 Yeah but you cant thin it or add hardener…
Hell yeah man I love showing real life garage jobs. I’d hit the rust with a die grinder but I’m a perfectionist. Love the video homie
Thanks man! Right on…yeah I love high end work just as much as the next guy but I’ll never forget my beginnings of working on old cars right on the street before I even had a one car garage.
Mike, I used the Tractor Supply Majic satin black with hardener on my Gbody radiator support and the bottom side my hood. It's a perfect match to GM black, but way more durable!
Diggin the new logo, and hell yes brother I'd sport that tee shirt!
I was literally looking at that paint today at Tractor Supply. Good to hear its holding up! I’m glad some seem to dig the idea of a shirt. I think it would be cool to make an online store.
I've been a fan of POR-15 for a long time but about 15 years ago I heard about KBS Coatings. I've been using their products ever since. They are cheaper than POR-15 and IMO a better product all around. 12 years ago I refurbished my car trailer with KBS Coatings. I redid the top and bottom of the all-metal trailer that was 20 years old at that time. 12 Years later the finish still looks great. It's cool that you are experimenting with other products and I hope the longevity is there for you. For me, I've found a product that I will use until someone can prove their product is superior. Keep up the work on the '55. I look forward to its progress in future videos. John
Thank you! Yes, Ive heard of that product but have never tried it. Something else to experiment with now!
@@intheshoptv Did you try KBS and compare it with this yet? Thanks this video is really helpful.
@@Tonisuperfly I haven’t. The thing is, by itself, Im sure both por15 and KBS are prob better suited for this job, however by reducing the rustoleum, it makes it flow out so there are no brush strokes, and adding the hardener essentially turns it into a catalyzed 2k product which then becomes vastly more durable than both por15 and kbs for less money! Some things I discovered: rustoleum states to thin with acetone - that works great but only if youre spraying it from a gun. When using a brush, the film thickness is obviously higher which causes some solvent pop. I switched to mineral spirits on the second batch as its a slower reducer and that fixed the problem. I bet “flood penetrol” would be even better! Definitely found it better to brush on a frame though… rust prevention is all about film thickness. If you choose to spray, several coats would be necessary
@@intheshoptv thanks for the detailed response. I did watch the whole video and saw you switch to mineral spirits and I also saw someone asking about using penetrol in the comments :)
I like the way you have summed it up again here. It helps it go into my brain. There are so many options for painting and I get overwhelmed and forget what I’ve learnt. Brushing onto a chassis for thickness makes a lot of sense to me now that you’ve explained it. It’s also infinitely easier to setup and safer to brush it on than spray. I felt like I had to spray to get a good finish but honestly, I’m happy if it’s “good enough”. I really can’t wait to give it a go.
I just have a couple of questions:
1. How do you choose a hardener? Is it like thinner, in that there are different products for water-based vs oil-based? I have some bully liner, which is a truck deck liner that is water-based but sets hard. Just considering whether any hardener could be added to something like that? Or if a hard 2K coating could be made out of other acrylic paint?
2. I get a little confused with rust - whether to use something that converts surface rust or whether to remove rust completely with something like Evaporust (but now I want to try the homemade version I just learned about).
You used an etching primer on the bare steel, but if you had say a galvanised finish, with parts that had minor surface rust - would you use an etching primer for the lot or a rust converter on the rust and etch on the galv? Or does the etch already contain rust inhibitors? You might have explained this but I’m too tired to remember right now. This is the stuff that keeps me awake at night lol
@@Tonisuperfly many hardeners will do just fine. I used the majik brand from Tractor Supply. I just used some in a more recent video when I sprayed my firewall with satin Rustoleum. After about a week or two of curing, I couldn’t even scratch it.
Rust sucks period. The converters work “ok-ish” but aren’t a long-term solution, removal is best if you want a long term solution. Homemade removers (vinegar, baking soda) work just fine. Creates the same chemical reaction but with rust, you have to coat the rust free surface almost immediately because microscopic rust starts to form- even with the touch of an un gloved hand or humidity in the air. For the best results, physically remove it with abrasives/wire wheel etc, clean it with your homemade solution or evaporust and get it in a thick coat of paint right away. Wire wheeling the frame also makes for a slick paint job… you can see in this video how nice the section of frame that was prepped turned out vs encapsulating the un prepped section.
Thanks for sharing this. I'm gonna try this on my 76 C3 Vette and the rear of my 59 Apache.
Welcome! I have to get my wife’s c3 going sooner than later
That stuff is great for frame and suspension, under car and inside too. Budget friendly to boot!
Im real pleased with how hard it seems. Im thinking of spraying it in the “low gloss” finish under the hood, firewall and inner fenders etc…
@intheshoptv who's harder on their equipment than a farmer?! 😆 stuff is great for an at home budget build. When I was "restoring" cars, we used it a lot when customers just wanted a nice driver
KBS is the best on the market.
@@PBAB17 Im glad you’re happy with it. Thanks for watching
Hey bud. The logo looks good.👍🏼 Sale it! I’m buying.
Thank you sir!
I noticed the nw logo. its nice yes i would buy a T-shirt. thanks for all the help.
Loving the feedback so far. Thank YOU.
I never seen acetone used to thin. I always use mineral spirits to thin oil based paint. There is also i product I use it’s called Japan dryer. It makes the paint dry in way less time. That might be something you want to check out. I buy mine ace hardware. I have never seen it before and I don’t know anyone who uses it besides me. I add a cap full to a once mix up. So a bottle let me years. Hope this helps.
Yep. I know all about Japan dryer… its good stuff. Yeah, Rustoleum even recommends using acetone. I think it would be great if sprayed, but it flashed too soon for a brush finish.
Was one can enough for the whole frame?
@@johnny257 yes, since I was reducing it, it went a lot further. I think I still have about 1/4 can left over. Holding up great too - Adding the hardener really made it rock solid
Yes, I like the logo and I will buy a shirt or hat!!!
Thank you! Think Im going to go ahead and get started on that! (I want some too lol)
I definitely doing this, i am like you bro i use my rig ( off road ) i want something that can handle the abuse the best way possible, like you said in the beginning of the video is a frame.
Its definitely a good product. Best of luck and thanks for watching!
I like the new logo and would buy your merch
Awesome! Im hoping some people are into it… I want then too lol
Logo and shirts 👍
Thank you. I like that C3!
Very nice.....
Thanks! Hope you subbed, would love to have a painter on board!
I'd buy a shirt, new logo looks great.
Thanks man, I appreciate that!
Hoodie and a hat for me please!
Cool! Id like to design a hat with the logo on a patch too
The logo is hot! Im down for a girl hoodie!
Would never leave the ladies out!
