Default Powdercoat and rust...
While watching Tv (Musclecar on Power Block) they were powdercoating a frame. It had A LOT of surface rust on it.

The powdercoating place shot right over it and baked it. Is that ok to do?

I had assumed that like paint you would want a CLEAN surface before applying any kind of coating.

Does powdercoating seal it up and keep the rust from spreading or are they going to have troubles down the road with the Impala frame?
