Ruth and I spent Monday together taking the bumpers and frame sliders off of the Jeep so we can strip them and repaint them with por15. I am tired of dealing with the rust out here.

Wow, itd take 1000 years to get steel that rusted in Bako. Whats that like a year in the Nard?

The POR15 is excellent stuff!

ALthough... you must be rich! That stuff is pretty expensive to put on parts that need painting after every trip.

The nice thing about POR15 is it stops the rust from advancing and you can touch up with rattle can.

Sliders and front bumper sandblasted and prepped....ready for POR15 as soon as the humidity drops a little.

Still raining out here....still cant paint.

How many of your significant others would allow this kind of madness?

Armor is sanded and almost finished being primed.

You think it is safe to paint with that stuff in your home?

How do you mean safe?

Fumes?

Just don't want to hear about Ruth and yourself dying from asphyxiation or whatever.

I opened all the windows, it wasn't so bad.

Everything is painted and re-installed! I experimented with a new idea that I will first show off at KOH then I will post it up here.

It's gay until you do what we talked about.... then it's EPIC! But the idea is WAY sound... I have to go do some research.

Like I told you this was a test to see if the idea was sound and if it would hold up. Just wait till I get to do my real idea you will like it. I have a couple projects in the works.

The spider is backlit. This was a test of a theory, I now have other projects with the technology.
