On the end of the hose, there's a nozzle that sprays 360 degrees. You feed into in a hole in the frame rail (like by the control arms), and then pull the trigger and slowly pull it back out.

Underseal Spray Gun & Probe - Spray Gun - Apply RustSeal - KBS Coatings
I'll be using that, and POR-15 to coat the inside of the 'frame' rails on my Jeep.

POR-15 bonds to rusty metal, so here's what I'd reccomend:
1. Wash out the frame rail with a garden hose
2. Fill said sprayer with POR-15 Marine Clean > Spray inside rails
3. Rinse
4. Fill sprayer with POR-15 Metal Ready and spray (this preps the surface)
5. Rinse
6. Allow ample time to dry, and spray POR-15

You don't need numerous heavy coats. Two light coats should do it, just to insure complete coverage. The inside of your frame rails aren't going to be getting hit by stones or anything.

/thread hahah

Yeh I read about rust stop, I will NOT be using them, you can read for yourselves. I will be using por-15 with the 360 sprayer for sure.

Ordering it now haha

I've purchased from KBS Coatings before, and they've been a pleasure to deal with. Fast shipping and they know their products. They don't sell POR-15 anymore but you can buy direct from POR15, Inc. - Stop Rust Permanently - Repair Gas & Fuel Tanks or a little cheaper on eBay. The POR-15 has to be thinned with POR-15 solvent or Xylene before it can be sprayed. I forget what the % is though. It says it on the can (varies by temperature).

Marine Clean and Metal Ready are both water based products, so a little dampness won't affect them.

The frame rails will drain from the holes that face downward.

Yeah, you don't need to let it dry inbetween treating it with hose, marine clean, and metal ready, just before you paint. You can assist with an air hose, but it will probably take a day or two.

So for the sprayer... Just hooks up to my compressor? It hasn't come yet, so I am just curious.
