Painting with POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating
At 8:19 in
Our GMT400 Suburban Frame Off Big Block Build is Rolling! (Junkyard 14 Bolt Prepped By Logan)
What happens here
After the axle assembly is completely dry and prepped, move it indoors to a clean, well-ventilated area. Set it up on wooden blocks to provide clearance for painting all sides. Cover the floor with plastic sheeting and cardboard to protect against paint splatter. Logan wears a full-body painter's suit, safety glasses, and gloves. Using a paintbrush, apply an initial coat of POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating to all surfaces of the rear axle, ensuring even coverage and paying close attention to welds and crevices. The video shows the entire axle, including the differential housing and axle tubes, being painted black.
Goal: Apply a rust-preventative coating to the entire rear axle assembly.
