Nice although it makes me think it's the underside of the Tin Man. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I was thinking the same thing about the Tin Man as I was reading that.
Punctuation, anyone?

Wow, that was rusty! You probably needed to sand away the rust before applying the epoxy.

I was thinking about the Tinman from the Wizard of Oz as well. At least with this color if you get a leak you will spot it pretty easy.

After painting that I am sure HE looked like the Tin Man... I know I would have. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
I have been going over mine with POR-15 it is brush on so not as easy but no need to get all the rust off with that stuff.

I thought about doing POR-15 but I had this laying around so it was free I think I am going to paint the wheel wells black so it don't sick out as much.

What do y'all think about the spray on bed liner?
It seems to work nicely on skid plates and wheel wells, and it's really easy to apply if you prep the area.
Would something like that work for an undercarriage?
