i just got new coils for my rc4.5 inch lift kit and i was wondering if anyone has had any experience with painting coils before?

 

look through some of the build threads alot of guys have painted coils and arms etc.

 

Really???? This is a question? How to paint coils...it's metal so just get some paint and spray them......sorry I just dont see where a question should be.

 

In Michigan, we paint them kind of a rust color. Everybody does it...it's easy.

 

coils flex sometimes causing paint to crack...just wanting to ask some people with experience..

 

No.

Alot of guys around here use rubberized undercoating, prevents rust and looks kinda neat.

Look for vinyl spray paint if you want colors, it lasts quite some time and doesnt crack to easy. Just make sure you prime paint and coat.

 

thanks diesel ill look into that

 

Sorry for the cyinical (spelling) reply. Busy day at work. Just get some of that rust prevenitive paint, that should stick.

 

You could always powder coat them, It will last alot longer than paint.

 

yea i would powder coat them.

 

Easy! Knock the shine out of them with a brillo pad so the paint has some bite and won't peel. and start spraying.
