Re: Backyard Cummins

Next order of business was to clean up the rear frame and prep for the rear mount fuel tank that i had planned. I ended up pressurewashing the frame with a 4000psi washer, which stripped most of the old paint and debris. I was confident painting from there, as there was no existing heavy rust or grease.

I used Rustolem "heavy metal" primer, and semi gloss black paint. It has held up very well for me in the past, and i will re-apply if needed. I have no intentions of powder coating. I applied it with a mixture of brush-on and spray cans for tight spaces, and haven't decided which method i like better yet.

**Note the home-made bumper brackets and tow hitch from previous owner..
