Hey Bud I’m looking to do an off frame build on my 68 C-10. I know the frame is still solid. But for future reference if I run across a project to where the frame needs a lot of work including patch work do I need to pass that project up or do I go ahead and spend the extra time on re-enforcement and bringing it back up
There are lots of products out there to "peel and seal" frames now, but you get "props", for the wire wheel, manual labor, sweat equity approach! Some people don't have the work ethic you do, congrats!
I did one 1940 Ford coupe frame at the same time as a 1957 Chevy ragtop frame...side by side. We sandblasted them roughly to knock off most of the rust and then sprayed both with a metal acid from Zep. Then repeated both steps the next day. Then sprayed heavy coats of epoxy primer, waited six hours and gave them another prime. Then sprayed catalyzed acrylic enamel black, numerous coats to get the shiney look. Even clear coated with a catalyzed urethane clear. Two years later, when we had both of the bodies finished and dropped back down with the engines, the frames looked fab. 34 years later, in 2018, the man who still owned both cars called me to come inspect the acrylic lacquer finishes (Ditxler). Even though both cars had been driven to various shows, but were lept in his barn most of the time, I got down on the floor and flashlighted the frames. They were still 100% and still shiney! Compared to the coal tar based black enamel the Ford factory used and the black alkyd enamel GM used, they really proved the better, doing it how we did. I hope I never have to do another frame, just like I hope I never have to hang another front clip on a '50 Chevy truck.
Just scored a frame for my '92 F150 restoration project, so that's what brought me here. Its videos like this that keep me inspired to keep moving on my own projects, so thank you for that.
When spraying inside your cross members,If you put tape about a inch from the end of the rubber tube,you will know when it is close to the end pulling it out. I hope you did not get any over spray on your truck parked in the doorway,you might want to cover it up if you spray again. You can buy a roll of plastic at the auto paint store,it's around 14' wide and 300' long to cover your projects with. It turned out great! Nice job.
You need 2 engine stands converted to frame holders which when you weld flat plates to them they can bolt straight to the frame on the front and back allowing for you to roll it around and also spin frame 360 when painting it. I have an buddy who did this technique for his 63 impala
I admire your thoroughness and discipline to completely derust and clean the frame to prep for coating with rust preventative ! Your work will preserve that truck frame for many years of service ! Great job !
True!! It was a lot of work. It looks GREAT. Right now, I got a 79 F 150 Styleside that my dad had new before I went into the Navy. I retired from the navy and been working on it. Engine, transmission and differential done. Time to put this puzzle back together. Real fun!!!
You won my subscription... I have done this type of job many a time... I used compressed air after wire wheeleing to get the dirt out of the cracks... (with safety glasses on) and then wiped the whole frame and surface with a gallon of paint thinner to get more dirt out (in tight places I ouredd a couple of ounces to flush out the dirt) and then another once over with the air compressor and blower nozzel.... Thenan ethyl alcohol wipe down as a final prep... I am not criticising .... You said you wanted to hear feedback - alternative methods so - you asked for it ( just kidding) GREAT show BTW... Thanks for sharing...
Hey bro you were very very educational towards what I am doing so forget the naysayers I give you thumbs up 10 times all the way brother keep doing what you're doing I'm enjoying watching so thumbs up from me my friend you're excellent at what you do brother
Yeah I think you're awesome bro I'm trying to Fix a frame that I bought which is a 86 El Camino frame and I want to be able to painted Chrome and make it look nice under the bottom so I definitely needed your help and your video is awesome bro thank you for that
I have a background in aircraft parts reconditioning and painting. I really like using Sherwin Williams hex chromium epoxy primer for a base. In my experience rust encapsulate products do not work because rust can flake off in which oxides can redevelop. In your situation your frame was so nice and rust free I would have opted to do a phosphoric acid soak and rinse and then epoxy prime. The reason i like the hex chromium epoxy paint is that it is mil spec for aircraft coating. If it's good enough for an airframe then good enough for a car. Fantastic effort and a job well done. Your attention to detail was amazing.
Looks good. Just need to remember to use a breathing apparatus at all time when dealing with aerosol and eye protection especially when your working under something like that frame when brushing on the protective coat.
@@partsandresto perfect job, just whispering here, next time if possible, cover that nice ride by the door from all the paint, man that frame, well done
@@partsandresto very thorough and nice job. Mopar lover myself. When you were doing the last part with the frame on its side, you can see the air currents (looks like) moving through the shop toward you. Wear painting respirator for this people. Those painting products are not made to be inhaled even in small amounts. Stay safe and GOD Bless.
I like the mild humor and trying to make your videos fun. That's a lot of hard work and dedication you put into the frame. I can't wait to see the finished project. Keep up the good work and awesome job demonstrating some great products.
@@partsandresto I figured the GMC was parked there as a deterent, I would have done the same as well although would have also been worried about the overspray loool.......great job man, really hard work although really rewarding work! I have yet to try the Eastwood products although have had great success with Rust Bullet sealers and rust inhibitors, have you ever tried them on any of your projects? would be interesting to see between Rust Bullet and Eastwood which if any is slightly better than the other, Cheers bro
Most overspray will dry in mid air before touching the 20 foot mark leaving it easy to wash off so don't worry about it just paint and realize that there's an reason you hold your paint gun 6 to 8 inches away cause it gose on wet from that distance and sticks 20 feet is plenty room to get it off your truck I paint houses ,cars ,rod iron fences and have never got anything on my truck that wouldn't just wash right off. Good day to you guys and yes house paint is designed to stick to metal as well as wood and stucko also.
I’m building a willys wagon with 1-ton Chevy gear & you’re approach is pretty much identical to mine. ...& that shop you got there is the real deal, I built my first hot rod in a barn & stuff like that gives everything we do a real charisma, I love it!
I love your videos, keep them coming! I don't know anything about restoring an old car or truck so I appreciate all the little details in your tutorials (equipment, sprays and products you use, etc).
First ever video I've seen of yours and honestly it was awesome. Great job on all that hard work. Only thing I would have for criticism is typically when painting you do a really light first two coats allowing the material to flow and adhere better to the frame. I don't know if you'll have any bad effects from going so heavy right off the bat but I know that with everything I've painted going two light coats then a medium coat always serves me well. Cheers my guy
Your one tough workin dude, you saw to it and completed it and showed that frame who’s boss! Glad to see you with a respirator on for the two part spray bomb, let’s see some more of your stuff! Take care
Good effort on the manual labour. I use one of those air varsol sprayer's to spray rust inhibiter inside a frame, it comes out as a fog and gets everything inside coated including seams.
It’s really interesting how a truck frame from the 50’s is so solid and the frame on my 96 Silverado is literally flaking apart. It’s so bad that a had to have 2 cracks in the Chanel repairs with diamond plate and 1/4” steel on both sides of the frame by the front spring eyes. But I do like Eastwood’s products and may try them out on a 79 trans am frame I’ll be restoring.
Nice job, very thorough. I'm getting inspired to do my '55 chevy frame. My first frame off. Got a rolling frame looking at me. With winter coming, admiring your garage space too. Thanks
Nicely done. That is exactly how i'd do it if I had somewhere to do it. I've got a few projects waiting for a shop to get built. Hopefully 2021 will be the year. Smart move using the silver chassis paint. Makes it easy to see if you miss any spots with the black top coat. I plan on using the Eastwood products when I get around to doing the frames on my squarebodies. I May even do the frame on my 57 Two-Ten but not sure yet as it's a little too nice to tear apart just yet.
Nice job! Looking to use the same product on my F-350 frame. Curious how the finish was after brush coating the platinum paint.. Did it leave any brush stroke imprints or did it sort of self level and come out as a smooth finish when dried? If not, would you suggest using a spray gun instead of brushing for a smooth finish look?
Nice job, I went with their middle of the road encapsulator about 8months ago and not entirely happy with the outcome, have you noticed any small bit of rust/oxidation coming through? I did alot of the same steps in the video and also did two coats of each product and feel like it should have last alot longer.. may gas tank skid is where I noticed it most. Maybe I should have used the 2k instead of the chassis black, hope to see updates, awesome looking frame brother!
I used the Eastwood black encapsulator on my 95 Chevy truck frame. Have the same problem with rust coming back though it. And frame has been mostly stored in my garage.
You are the real deal, hard core manual labor the whole way. Eastwood has a power washer dustless blaster attachment that would have made short work of knocking the rust off that frame and would have degreased it at the same time. Then a cheap throwaway paint gun for the encapsulator and chassis paint. But like I said, I'm lazy!! I have a 10K Challenger automotive lift that I can use instead of jack stands, but very few people have one of their own. It turned out great though. Thanks for the video.
Very nice!! Thanks for letting us know how much rust encapsulation you used. Would also be great if you can share quantity of other materials used. And, especially, how many hours of labor did it take you to do this frame restoration project? I enjoy doing projects like these but find I’m always underestimating the materials and time to complete...
Great job. I have done this myself and don't mind hard work to get great results like this. However, long pants and work boots are a must in a shop always. Shop work is not at a summer barbecue or a trip to the beach. Think safety and exposure to chemicals etc. You only have one you!
Wow Dave! Looks like an epic couple of days! The first day seemed to be a long one. Definitely, Great results 👍 Frame looks factory fresh. Love your videos, entertaining, informative; and well done! Look forward to all of them!
Is this for hobby or is this your profession/self employment? Reason im asking is because i love stripping cars and trucks down to frame... if so how did you get started?
Just a hobby, I’m a full-time fireman. I got started by just giving it a shot, this is Quite literally the very first truck I have begun a restoration on.
@@partsandresto thats pretty cool.. so is my '82 Chevy.. very 1st one of my own im taking all the way down to the frame.. its therapeutic to me a bit, idk why but it is.. are you in NY, NJ or MA?
That frame is in better shape than any jeep I've been under! Great work bud, love your steel toe toes! But you need to use safety equipment gloves respirator safety glasses all the time. Take it from someone who has been doing this 40 years. Love your shop!
I had an old boss who would get on the phone with her mortgage company at work. I'd hear her in her office basically begging them not to foreclose 😥 it's no joke out there, take care everyone
@@reallyhappenings5597 well I was referring to the music being overwhelming generic 😂 but to address your comment...she must have had a shitty lender 🤷🏼♂️ my lender takes whatever you can afford and defers the balance to the end of the term...thankfully I haven’t had to use this option yet...For now I still make a good income but I know many are only a paycheck away from absolute ruin 😔 all over the common cold too 🤔
Makes me wish I had a shop big enough to do a frame off resto. But for now I have to fake it. Doing the best I can for now. Looking awesome! Subbed and following along. Glad this showed up in my feed! Keep up the good work. Remember us little guys when you hit 100k subs. 😜🙌🏼
This was a nice video to watch. I'm in my shop by myself and watching you do exactly what I have done. I can relate to all the frame challenges. Good luck with your builds!
Hydro blast would have taken that frame right to the ready to paint stage in about 2hrs. They come to you, look into it. Maybe for the next project.👍 Great job on the frame!
I’m no automobile expert but I had this feeling right from the beginning, the oil and grease could have been burnt using a gas flame instead of the degreaser spray and wasting so so so much of paper.
Getting the frame to and from the sandblasting/powdercoating place could have been tricky (and expensive) though, depending on what he's got available to him for transport.
@@SniffBackBetter yeah but as a metalworker I hate powder coating as when it chips rust gets underneath, have you seen road signs with peeling of plastic

How many cans of the 2K did you use?
5-6
That 5-6 cans, was that for one coat? Looking to use Eastwood 2K on my 1971 Monte frame and trying to figure out how much to buy for 2 coats. Thanks
@@tommik9368 Rattle cans give lousy coverage. Just use a spray gun, cheap enough and way better.

How much did the entire Eastwood stuff cost?
That frame is mint. Up here in Maine we make frame restoration videos on 2010 gm products 😹
Hahahahahha
I'll watch your video if you do not ad the extra crappy music or any music.
i was gonna say the same thing. try that here in upstate ny. had a 2013 the other day, almost time for junkyard
nice job though
Here in England we do the same on 2010 Land Rover vehicles!

Clearly you work to exceptional standards,
Wow that’s really kind of you to say. Thank you
Dude. You are a beast. The frame restoration video was awesome! It’s about time someone did it right....And you didn’t even need expensive equipment.
Haha thanks. Gotta do it yourself how you want it done
Always can appreciate a mans hard work and still have time to create these great videos
So ridiculously satisfying seeing all that rust and shmoo come off.
Yasssssss. It was fun!
Don't forget to wear a respirator. GREAT JOB! You're a HARD WORKING MAN!
Thanks brother Earl
@@partsandresto Now trash that Flyers shirt and get a Bruins one. Merry Christmas to you and the family.
My man. You are one dedicated hommie. Frame looks brand new
Nice to see a fresh website with a lot of pro tips!
encapsulate the rust sounds like a time bomb. What will really stop surface rust in a cavity is lanoline grease (fluid film)
One of the best shows on utube

When I was growing up, a farmer near me was always bragging about his KB-46 flatbed. That was back in the '60's. He had it many years.
Awesome. I bet it was sick
Years ago took a '48 cadilac chasis to have it dipped. I then sprayed it with Eastwood Black Jack. Turned out brand new!
They do quite a fine job with their paints don’t they!
Wish someone would have shown me that hand-clap clean-up trick years ago. Would have come in handy. Kids today got it easy...

Thanks for letting us know how much rust encapsulation you used. Would also be great if you can share quantity of other materials used. And, especially, how many hours of labor did it take you to do this frame restoration project?
I enjoy doing projects like these but find I’m always underestimating the materials and time to complete...
Great job.
I have done this myself and don't mind hard work to get great results like this.
However, long pants and work boots are a must in a shop always.
Shop work is not at a summer barbecue or a trip to the beach.
Think safety and exposure to chemicals etc. You only have one you!
Wow Dave! Looks like an epic couple of days! The first day seemed to be a long one. Definitely, Great results 👍 Frame looks factory fresh.
Love your videos, entertaining, informative; and well done! Look forward to all of them!
Thanks Paul, I shot this over two days and yes, day one was intense! More on the way sir.
Nice job, good days' work!
Thanks fella. Two days but whose counting!! 😂✌️
Tub o towels is the real deal!
Subscribed ! Fantastic video, what’s the music that you’re playing sounds really cool. Great work mate. 👍
Hmm, music should be in the description. Welcome aboard.
Love the level of humor and chill in this video. The pressure washing part had me cackling for a while
I wish frames were coated like this straight from the factory
You’d think they would be!
This is therapy for me. 😁👍
Is this for hobby or is this your profession/self employment? Reason im asking is because i love stripping cars and trucks down to frame... if so how did you get started?
Just a hobby, I’m a full-time fireman. I got started by just giving it a shot, this is Quite literally the very first truck I have begun a restoration on.
@@partsandresto thats pretty cool.. so is my '82 Chevy.. very 1st one of my own im taking all the way down to the frame.. its therapeutic to me a bit, idk why but it is.. are you in NY, NJ or MA?
I'm all in on the choice of refreshment dude slainte
This man is a gluten for punishment. I envy his ability to stick with an long and boring task to achieve an excellent result.
Absolutely love your shop !
When you painted subscribe ok n the frame I subscribed . Looking forward to seeing this build and the rest of the channel
Deep dive my friend. Welcome aboard 😂
You have sold me with the first video as I have subscribed! It usually takes at least 5 before I hit that red button.
Not happy about that flappy coat when using the angle wire-wheel.
Great project though superb job 👍🏻🇷🇴🇬🇧
Haha. Yeah it was a bad idea. Had an incident, didn’t die, but I pooped a littlw
That frame is in better shape than any jeep I've been under! Great work bud, love your steel toe toes! But you need to use safety equipment gloves respirator safety glasses all the time. Take it from someone who has been doing this 40 years. Love your shop!
Hey Hondo, yeah I’ll be taking better care of my lungs from here on out. Probably gonna get a full face piece respirator
The music makes me feel like I’m on hold with my mortgage company
I had an old boss who would get on the phone with her mortgage company at work. I'd hear her in her office basically begging them not to foreclose 😥 it's no joke out there, take care everyone
@@reallyhappenings5597 well I was referring to the music being overwhelming generic 😂 but to address your comment...she must have had a shitty lender 🤷🏼♂️ my lender takes whatever you can afford and defers the balance to the end of the term...thankfully I haven’t had to use this option yet...For now I still make a good income but I know many are only a paycheck away from absolute ruin 😔 all over the common cold too 🤔
Totally freaked out by sandblasting. Happy to see this process is totally legit.
Makes me wish I had a shop big enough to do a frame off resto. But for now I have to fake it. Doing the best I can for now. Looking awesome! Subbed and following along. Glad this showed up in my feed! Keep up the good work. Remember us little guys when you hit 100k subs. 😜🙌🏼
Wow that frame looks fantastic 👍👏🏆
Wish you were near by, I would enjoy helping. Would make a nice practice run for Dad's 53 B3PW sitting in my yard.
Yeah this is exactly the kind of project where I'd happily help for free
South philly boy , nice project, I see your a firefighter thanks for your service.
You got it! Yeah my shop is right by the station at 4th and Snyder
This was a nice video to watch. I'm in my shop by myself and watching you do exactly what I have done. I can relate to all the frame challenges. Good luck with your builds!
Thanks Scott!! Glad you liked!
love the choice with murphys
Hydro blast would have taken that frame right to the ready to paint stage in about 2hrs. They come to you, look into it. Maybe for the next project.👍 Great job on the frame!
Thanks Jim. Good ide
@@partsandresto As I get older I start to realize that the one thing I can never get back is my time. So I tend to contract out undesirable task. 🤣
I subscribed cause your hard work deserves it !
Would it not have been cheaper just to have it sandblasted and powder coated
I’m no automobile expert but I had this feeling right from the beginning, the oil and grease could have been burnt using a gas flame instead of the degreaser spray and wasting so so so much of paper.
Getting the frame to and from the sandblasting/powdercoating place could have been tricky (and expensive) though, depending on what he's got available to him for transport.
@@SniffBackBetter yeah but as a metalworker I hate powder coating as when it chips rust gets underneath, have you seen road signs with peeling of plastic
Think he got the paint for free, Just the labour needed!
@@Alan2E0KVRKing yeah, from eastwood...their stuff is too expensive
Love your channel, best to you man 👍
Thanks brother!
