Well I am getting ready to weld on my tnt axle truss to my D60 front but I would like to POR15 the entire axle but I can't do the underside of the truss before welding due to the heat. What can I use to reach trough the holes in the TnT truss to reach the inside for a good coating to prevent rust?

Anyone have any good ideas?

im in the same boat and also plan on using por15. Im going to pick one of these up tomorrow and see how it goes!

I think I would need it to have some sort of flexible hose to be able to reach inside the axle truss......still looking.

Yea, it kinda work, it was able to spray the inside walls of the truss but i dont think it got the top to well.

you could use a weld through primer and paint the inside before you weld.

Go to Eastwood company. They have a rust inhibitor/converter. Can't thing of the name but it comes with a hose and spray nozzle. It is for spraying the inside of frames. Def going get some to do the inside of my frame. It cost about 17.00 a rattle can.

These are the ones I found...

Internal Frame Coating w/Spray Nozzle

Eastwood Rust Encapsulator w/ext Nozzle Black

I don't really see much difference in the two and probably just get the cheaper one to get fairly decent coverage I think.

Thanks for the tips.

that looks like a good por15 substitute. I think i might get that and do the truss again and my frame

The first one was the one I was talking about. They are both the same just that the Eastwood Rust Encapsulator will be black in color. I have used it when doing restorations or repaired frames.
