K-Member Paint Question
« on: May 03, 2016 - 10:08:02 PM »
Hey guys,

I'm going to be painting my K-member and wanted to know what would be the strongest and most durable paint?  I'm not worried about originality.  Thanks

Dave

I used Eastwood chassis Black. it has been three years and still looks great.   :2thumbs:

pressured washed and degreased, then hand sanded, wiped down and painted.

I like Wurth products as well.  What do you recommend?  Powder coating isn't an option in my situation.
