what should i coat my frame with?

im almost to the point where im ready to tear my truck back down and begin doing paint and bodywork. so my question is what would be the best coating to put on my frame that will hold up but not cost me an arm and a leg? i dont want to get to crazy because ill have a closed bed and only place youll be able to see the frame is under the hood....what does everyone suggest? what have you used and how did it work?

por 15

I used POR 15 on my frame, it works fine, but the frame has to me 100% clean and contamination free....

i know it's cheap, but OMNI single stage factory pack black has a very nice shine to it for the money...about $50-60 per SPRAYABLE quart

i also used por 15. there were 3 colors and it turned out really nice still. had the whole frame blasted then sanded it smooth so i had no problems

blazed where ya been man,your blazer is lookn sick!
i used 3m rubberized undercoating on my frame over 5 years ago and it still looks good.
but i didnt know about por 15 back then either.

ive been around man. been bagging my 77 chevy piece by piece. blazers been on hold but not for long thanks for the comment though

por15 is badass

Well, I would powdercoat it, but if you don't have it all striped down, than por15 is the shizzznit. I could have your frame powdercoated for around $2oo..Good luck.
