Am I right in thinking that with celly you lay down primer then colour the lacquer? with 2pak its just primer then shoot the colour? do you need an air fed mask for 2pak or will just good normal mask do??? whats the process with water based ?

I got it coated at widnes galvanising in Cheshire I live in st helens so its only down the road. so ive decided that I'm gunna use a zinc rich primer on any areas I'm not happy with then just a normal primer and then black 2 pak and I know it might be over kill but I want some protection on...

Thanks for the reply's guys, in regards to a few things, the chassis is a used one but I must admit its the cleanest used chassis ive seen, no patches no rust nothing I actually couldn't believe how clean it was, it all go sand blasted and the inside was thoroughly washed until all water coming...

What primer and top coat would you suggest Turboman? cheers

thanks for the reply turbo man, firstly I know its galved but I don't want it bare so everyone can see its galved, in regards to the dinitrol option I was just gunna paint the whole chassis in POR15 after T-wash so I wouldn't be treating the two spots where I think it might of not took, then the...

Right guys I got hold of a solid chassis a few month back. After having it blasted and the rails thoroughly cleaned I sent it for galvanising. Well its been done and from what I can see its got two areas one on a front out rigger and at the front of the left hand rail where it looks like it...

This might not work but I used Kurust on a few rust spots on mine, could you not just dump some inside the tank and swill that around it will put a stop to the rust that's already there, ???

the all in one units ive been looking at are LED ones mate.

the outside is spotless guys I mean spotless I couldn't believe my luck I thought it cant be as good as his saying but it was, ive shone a torch down everyhole I can and looked inside as much as I can and all I can see is light surface rust, I was under the same impression as you guys that if...

Hi guys last week I got my self a very solid no rot chassis, it was already sandblasted and the guy had started to paint it but gave up on the project. so the question Is do I remove the paint and get galvanised or do I get some high zinc paint and paint it and waxoyl the inside ? the zinc...

Yeh I completely agree mate not the most attractive is it,

Just enquired about how this was done, and it was a piece of 2mm laser cut steel welded to the end capping and top tub capping then counter sunk riveted to the door edge and bottom to the existing panel. seemed simple enough once I was told, but what I'm now wondering is what type of gasket do...

Yeh I knew it was a normal rear door with a glass panel, but they changed the door lock mechanism to a push button which I didn't like anyway. ive sourced the lamps myself from LED autolamps but the a lot more than 18 nicker, I don't need the revese lights cuz I wired my two led work lights in...

Hi guys I seen this pic a while ago on bolt on bits, I really liked the minimal look at the rear end with just having the one light cluster. Ive found the light cluster but ive been wondering how they did it. or if in fact they actually did or is it photo shopped because on the pic they have...
