Sandblasting Frame
 

I going to sandblast my frame on a 93 YJ. Anyone have experience having this
done? Then the tough question of paint or liner coating. I appreciate your
thoughts. Just starting a full rebuild.

Wrangler frames are galvanized. You could take the zinc right off. Why?

You could skip the sandblasting and paint it with POR-15. That way
you'd only need to degrease it and chip off any flaking material. POR
sticks to rusty metal better than it sticks to shiny metal. You should
topcoat it with another paint.

If you use POR /follow the directions exactly/ or you'll waste your
money. They aren't kidding about it curing in the can while open, about
it gluing the lid shut between sessions, or about sticking to your skin.
