[KAYE RIVERCITY]

....there is no excuse for pulling paint off bare metal these days.....with all the primers and surface treatments/sand blasting/dipping available to do the job.....such as 2 part epoxy primers/polyiso's and ureas's......anytime there is a surface failure -it is because of the prep.....not the top coat-unless scratched.....the newer polys/Urea's etc. and things like 2 part CARAC -[Dupont's Imron] will outlast any kinda weather conditions ...IF THE PREP IS DONE RIGHT.....anytime you see any bare metal on the frame or anyplace....start complaining rather loud and grab the owner where the hair is short.....there are undercoats that will stick to bare metal but not half as well as a painted surface-they were never made to be a paint...only a rust preventer by encapsulation-keeping oxygen/water/salt from getting in contact with bare mental......watch the coating process carefully before you take posesssion of the rig....the only undercoater is a Black Tar Epoxy made by Rust-oleum that is made to cover bare metal on the bottom of river barges and around salt water-that I know of first hand.....geofkaye
