Steel-it

Anybody have any experience with Steel-it? This product is advertised on this website and I looked at the videos. It seems it may be a good frame or chassis paint but for the color. I guess if it came in black then it may affect the stainless steel particles or maybe not able to obtain a deep black? IDK What do you guys think about it?

My 64 F-85 build is not a build back to original by any stretch, have you considered powder coat. I love the way mine turned out.

I have considered powder coat and also epoxy primer with top coat. I just saw their ad and it seems interesting if it performs as they claim. I ordered some so I will soon find out.
I have to keep in mind also, that any of these would be better than the factory coating.

Interesting , would be interesting to see if it would be superior to a 2k primer and epoxy paint ? As was mentioned cost seems similar

very interesting

just read more on the inclusion of stainless steel particles into coverings... pretty cool technology
like all chemicals Please read the SDS sheets and follow recommendations for health reasons.
