Pressure262 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Has anyone ever seen a raw frame just clear coated. Im debating on having larger just powder clear coat the frame and arms. Go for a natural look which I think would be cool. Any thoughts? Quote
Deadbeat Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 i want to do this but clear powdercoat is porous (pin holes of exposed metal) well it has been in past so rust will start up slowly,2 coats of pc or 2pack clear would be a better option 2pack paint is hard as fuck or just spraypack it, at least you can keep an eye on whats going on and touch it up easily Quote
Pressure262 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 Wow glad I asked, Didn't know the clear was like that. I use to powder coat wheels for work years ago about I was laying clear over already coated wheels so i never noticed the porous of the clear. Quote

trickedcarbine Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Depends on the prep. Seen some spot rus lightly underneath, and I've seen some look tits for a few seasons. Hit up Brian Stimbert at Quality Powdercoating on Facebook and ask some questions. Quote
jbooker82 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Just go bare for the rusty rat rod look. Matte black plastics, gloss red wheels. 1 Quote
locogato11283 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 I've had clear PC done on a-arms and swingarms. They started surface rusting after a couple months. Quote
87sheerips Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 clear rocks. Surface rust is no big deal, looks cool IMO Quote
Pressure262 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Report Posted March 7, 2016 The way things rust here on the east coast, I think im going to do an actual color instead. Don't want to have to re powder if it doesn't pan out. To risky. Quote
