1989 Jeep YJ
This restored 1989 Jeep YJ came
to us from an email sent out to the Long Island Off Road Club. The tub had a
coat of semi-gloss POR-15 and the owner wanted something nicer. The job came
out awesome and we made a new friend but not because we did his jeep. He's
just a good guy.
The original plan was to roll 2
coats in this tub. Since the owner was in no great hurry to get the vehicle
back we decided to have some fun and spray the 2nd coat. The front floor
boards had some minor rust so we ground surfaces down and applied a coat of
Chassis Saver #934 Silver-Aluminum.
Also during this job we
developed a method to coat the tight spots typical to jeeps. See photos
below of the foam block used to get behind the roll bar and in around the
tub where a roller just won't fit.
We tested 2 undercoating spay
guns on this project and we invented a new method to spray directly from a 1
gallon can after mixing and reducing the Monstaliner Enjoy! |
