    Had my tacoma professionally done by a shop in Boston, when I bought the truck up there. So far the hard glass like finish has held up to all the nasty stuff thats gotten on it, yet it still appears like it was done yesterday. Idk, if it's the design of the truck, or what, but zero paint chips with this coating. My tundra would have had a few by now that didn't have this coating.

    My frame is completely clean except the welds have shown a tiny bit of surface rust. I am wondering if I should take a day to wire brush lightly, clean, then hit those spots with some paint. Then after that hit it with some product like you speak of.
