Powder coat or paint axys a arms?

Just my opinion because... I bent an a-arm. Same one twice actually.


It doesn't take a very close inspection to see where the stress relief point was designed into the arms. They are bending as designed... lol


That said, I have a new stock lower on the left side now. Giving them another shot but it will be the last one.

Sneak Peak. Here is one of my A-arms. I will show the rest of the sled when it is all put together.

I sprayed them myself with PPG OMNI MAE Acrylic Enamel and a Paint gun. Primed with metal etching primer. So far the surface seems tough and is sticking well.

Didn't want to get the high temperature baking of powder coat and low temp didn't offer much for colors. I had a particular hi viz yellow in mind. Had it mixed to match the hi viz on my graphics.
