Sooner or later, I'm going to try and coat every inch I can get to, including the tub, inside and out.

I second the POR15 recommendation, great stuff.
I shoot some silicone caulk into the holes too to seal them against the weather better too, and screw into that....but the POR 15 goes on the metal parts first.

Thank you very much for the information. I will check into POR15.
The Silicone caulk seems like a great idea also. I will try that when work on my first mod.

EVERY bracket, aftermarket piece, plate, etc. and all penetrations made by a drill, or the like, get coated in POR15. I stand by POR15. Been using it for quite some time now, still looks freshly gray like the day I coated it.

Do you guys just rough up the area / metal with sandpaper if its a spot that isn't really rusting but say powdercoat has chipped off or its a chaffed area?
