CJ5 Frame

[srokajr]

I have recently started restoration of 1974 CJ5. I have had frame sandblasted and sprayed it with a rustoleum primer. However, it is starting to show signs of rust already. Which of your products would you recommend and procedure to apply them?

[KBS Coatings]

Go ahead and grab an All-In-One Kit which includes the RustSeal and BlackTop for a UV stable finish on your jeep.

Clean the entire frame with KBS Klean. After that, etch any areas that are down to bare metal with RustBlast. Then 2 coats of RustSeal followed by 1 coat of BlackTop.

There are three effective ways to topcoat RustSeal (with BlackTop) effectively so that the coatings bond and fuse together. Please choose the one that works for your project.

1) Apply the BlackTop once the second or final coat of RustSeal is dry-to-the-touch and does not leave a fingerprint (usually 3-8 hours depending on temperature and humidity).

2) Let the second or final coat of RustSeal fully cure (at least 24 hours), scuff the RustSeal with 320 grit, then apply BlackTop.

3) Let the second or final coat of RustSeal fully cure (at least 24 hours), dust the RustSeal with Fusion Self-Etching Primer, let the Fusion cure for 30 minutes, then apply BlackTop. If you want to choose this method, please make sure you grap a can of the KBS Fusion.

Please review the RustSeal Directions and let us know if you have any additional questions.
