 Cold galvanising paint - galvofroid Has anyone had any experience with the cold galvanising products our there? I've only used it once very successfully on a boat trailer I've done some reading and there's lots of products available. But galvofroid and Zinga ( http://www.frost.co.uk/zinga-cold-zinc- ... g-tin.html ) If it was so good why doesn't the world of classics paint the bottom of there cars with it? Or is it simply too good to be true?!

Re: Cold galvanising paint - galvofroid I used aerosol spray galvanizing and have a hell of a problem. 2 pack primer and top coat has started to drop off, leaving galvanized coat in situ. You MUST use some sort of acid etch primer after galvanised coatings.

Re: Cold galvanising paint - galvofroid aaarg steer clear of frost its expensive piddle about in your "Shop" making stuff look good with aerosols. 2part epoxy mastic which can be brushed without breathing aparatus , seems too get best results. 121 epoxy mastic http://www.volkszone.com/VZi/showthread.php?t=461431http://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=15033http://www.classicsmonthly.com/2010/10/25/update-the-cm-long-anti-rust-test/buy it here http://www.rust.co.uk/epoxy-mastic.cfm

Re: Cold galvanising paint - galvofroid Ie bought some epoxy mastic a few days ago to paint the 2cv floors and bulkhead...
Expensive but if it works worth every penny
I do hate frosts...
I ordered some zinga to do the c90 rear arch as its rusting. So want to nip it in the bud
