UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Wow, nothing better than 4x4 on a day like that!
That that first pic is a beauty btw.

 

Anyone up for offering opinions on this SLC trucks frame rust? Here’s my post but thought I would ask the locals about your salt etc.

Sand off the rust, spray black spray paint over the area where you had removed the rust, spray Fluid Film or Boeshield on anything that's metal that you don't want rust on, let the Fluid Film or Boeshield coat overnight and you should be good for a while.

 

Sounds like I need to get something together! I'll put my party planning committee hat on and figure something out here in the coming few weeks.

Zion area was FAR better than 389 from Page to Hurricane via Fredonia was this morning. What a snowy disaster. Ended up passing your place today. I felt silly because I should have brought those 2 vinyls I owe you, but I wasn't planning on going home that way.

Beach camping fail: last night vs this morning. Forecast: 40% chance of up to a half inch. Woke up to 2+

 

Went looking for snowy red rock. Boy, did we get what we asked for!

 

Count me in on any upcoming meets!

 

Looks like a scene from the Arctic.

 

Solid pics. Love the one with rock in the center.

 

That's Horseshoe Bend. During the summer it's hot AF!

 

What kind of sanding do you do? Spot sand by hand or ?

 

Must have passed along the way, we were camped outside Kanab over the weekend. Got the same 2”+ each night. And it was beautiful!
Had to come home Sunday-husband was supposed to fly on Monday-got bumped to Tuesday.

Your work is already applied and appreciated !

 

Spot sand by hand is what I would do and have done on my rock sliders. Rust is a pain in the ass, such a nuisance.

 

Rust blows. I have some rust maintenance to perform this spring.

 

Me too. But this time around I'm probably going to spray 2 - 3 coats of rubber undercoating.

 

Rubber coating from a rattle can? Do they make an automotive grade?

 

I use the rustoleum stuff on my skid plates. Works pretty well, but does NOT like to be applied cold.

 

I do the same for armor.

I have some maintenance to do for the parts where the steele was altered. CMC, Shock hoops, etc. I’m thinking an automotive grade paint.

 

I'm not sure on an automotive grade, but I just use the Kryon rubberized undercoating.

I think Gunshot-6A is right about using it when it's cold. It doesn't dry very well and it comes out brownish in color just like real shit color.

 

Mine was sprayed out the can brown , but cured to jet black on the metal after a while. The dropcloth I used was turd brown though.

 

Mine didn't cured until I'd sprayed black spray paint over it.
