Thread: rust bombs

  1. #11
    Well I finally got my cj7 and I'm just waiting for the snow to melt so that I can start working out in the driveway.

    Mudrat, you say you used POR on the frame and Eastwood on the body. I was wondering why and which you like better.

    I picked up the POR to prime and topcoat the frame and axles because what I had read about being more chip proof than the others. But mixing and spraying it and having to use their solvent was a REAL PAIN. The Eastwood stuff coats well - especially their rust preventive primer, and uses regular lacquer solvent. Cleaning up the spray gun was easier with the Eastwood primer.
    Now I'm reading articles that say the POR stuff peels after a couple years?!? I really don't want to do another frame resto because of that..

    But, the POR paint stripper is awesome stuff, but again it's more expensive, but then I haven't tried the Eastwood stripper.
