OEM coating on frame-2018


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone.  Does anyone know, if the OEM coating on the frame of the Silverado's, can be purchased anyplace?  I've got a few spots on the frame in the rear wheelwell area, that i would like to touch up, now that winter is over.  Or, if it cannot be purchased, what product can be used to fix.  thanks.

Working in the automotive industry, I’ve seen touch up spray cans of the e-coat that is used at the factory.  It basically appears like glorified spray paint so if you can find a quality spray paint, it would probably work as well.  

 

As with all paint applications, the prep is the most important part.  Tape off to nearest weld seams, degrease with acetone or similar, and paint to match is all I’m planning to do.

 

The cans in the plant did not have a fancy label... but here’s something on amazon...

Amsoil HD Metal Protector works great too, I've had good luck with it over the past winter. Hit up Black02Silverado for some!

Thanks! Just ordered a can. I have some sports that need touch up in the same places as the OP.
