I wanted to ask you guys what you are using to paint your rollcage with? I've done a search and cant seem to find anything. I remember someone posted up a thread about using por 15? That was a long time ago though. Let me know. Also if you had a shop do it or you did it? Pics and what you used if you can please.
Thanks
Tom

i painted mine with a foam brush and some rustoleum in a qaurt can. gloss black. worked great. i thinned it down just a little. looks great i think. thats how a local chassis shop does some of their hard to get to cages too.

I used the gloss black. I used a quart. A pint will cover a cage. I got crazy and did my work bench too!

I used a urethane based paint, it worked otu real good. It dried pretty smooth and hasn't chipped/scratched yet, and I've been in and out of the car about a million times since it was done.

One of those tiny little cans will cover the whole cage. I bought more and painted a lot of stuff..

Buy the "Six-Pack" POR-15 kit. Just one of those tiny little cans will easily cover an entire 6-point cage. Use a 2" wide bristle paintbrush, it will dry smooth. Goes on thick, and a little goes a long way. Do NOT use a foam paintbrush, it will leave bubbles in the finish. Use more than 2 coats if you want it more durable. So, two tiny cans.

How did you prep the cage? Anything special i should clean it with?

SiL3NtXWS6

i did not prep mine

You do not have to prep with por 15. It likes rusted surfaces.

i did mine with flat black rustoleum and i hate it now, im going to be redoing it with por-15 once i expand on the cage.

POR15 in Blackcote. since its UV safe.


I used it on the new control arms for my truck and used a foam brush and didnt have any problems at all.

I am amazied that it lays flat if you use a brush. Does it really look that good?

Even a couple of my buddies were saying its self leveling.
