OK folks, here's your chance to vote. What chassis coating would you use?

1. Paint
2. POR-15 (kinda in a class all by it's lonesome)
3. Powder coat
4. Other (post your "other" thought).

Other than "possibly" due to cost (and often there is little difference there) there is really no debate. Other than for a pure isca indoor show car, powder is the only thing I will consider.

I'd say powder coat as well. We had my Impala frame and the Fab9 for my wife's Camaro powder coated earlier this year and really liked the results.

Bs.

Old wives tail. I've touched it up at least a dozen times on my current build. Only remotely true if it's some sort of wild color.
