    Paints for coating ?

    At the auto store I'm seeing all these new Hi-Tech paints that claim to endure anything.

    Anyone tried them for CB lube ?

    I haven't tried them but will say some paints can be tougher than you can imagine. Brother was an individual painter when the bed of his truck rusted out he layed shop rags over bed and sprayed with leftover epoxy paint hardened solid he hauled gravel sand and all kinds of stuff never a problem some of the rust holes you could put both fist in and this paint and rags made the best bed liner i have ever seen. So i an not surprised that they are tough.

    There are some threads and you-tube videos of people spray painting boolits -- I've never tried it myself but I don't know why it wouldn't work.

    I think it would be messy and probably not cost effective but don't know.

    Ive tried VHT epoxy paint from auto store few years ago, think theres a thread somewhere saying it works but its almost as much as a pound of good powder coat and certainly not last near as long.
