[Chevelle-list] Best primer - frame/ suspension parts

[Clyde]

on my 69 chevelle we used a epoxy based primer sealer and painted black over it.every time a wrench or a stone hits it it chips.we have restored numerous corvettes and powder coated the frame and have had no problems,i hit the frame on one car with a hammer by mistake and the powder coat wasn't bothered.

  The only problem with that is that if it chips, you can't fix it.  Once moisture gets underneath the powerdcoat, it's done, the whole thing will lift.
