Underside of frame after paint

I got the underside prepped and primed on Monday evening. I used POR for the priming since much of the metal was heavily rust pitted and the POR fills in the pits to give a better working surface to paint on. The POR is a liquid product that can be sprayed on but I always brush it on. The stuff is like steel after it dries and I like to be generous with it on a rusted piece of metal like this.

The weather on Tuesday was horrible, very rainy. So, I didn't get to paint the frame at all on Tuesday.

So, on Wednesday finally it's paint day! I then used a semi-gloss black enamel, Rustoleum to be exact, as the finish coat. Two coats of that. I plan on coming back with a clear coat once the entire frame it painted to add an extra hadened layer of protection.


Front underside after clean, blast, prime and paint. Much better!
