Just wondering if anyone has used Eastwood's Internal Frame Coating with the long tube to spray inside the longtitudinals with the heater tubes still inside.
I'm just wondering how effective it will be with the heater tubes in the way. Eastwood says it won't damage the heater tubes, but I'm not sure of that if they are made of thick paper. Opinions please. |

Thanks for the comment on flammability.
I was going to take advantage of a cut out rust spot to spray the coating prior to having it welded, but I just confirmed with Eastwood to use this product only after all welding is complete. |

You can also get pretty good access through the factory holes on the inside of the longs that are under the carpet and covered with tar ovals. Warm the ovals gently with a heat gun or hair dryer and gently peel them off with a putty knife. They come off easily in one piece and can be reinstalled when you are finished. That gives you fore and aft access where you can get the wand over and under the heater hose. |
