Best paint for painting axles?
What would you recommend to paint my axles, gonna do a swap and want to paint new to me axles before I put them on.

spray paint. I used POR15 and it's never coming off. except for when the rocks tear it off. and you can't touch this stuff up. it didn't stick well to the knuckles either and I only used it because it was free. the rear will be getting rustoleum
|
I used some farm and implement spray paint from tractor supply co on my current axles. Seems to be more durable than the regular ol' krylon and rustoleum, and about the same price, and just as easy to apply.

I used tremclad rust paint. Did a few coats, it's still holding up. Just used a paint brush
|
If they're taken down to bare metal, high build primer and a quality rubberized undercoating or bedliner. If not, then POR 15 or a similar chassis saver instead of primer and the same as above.

I use rustoleum on my axles. although i find myself redoing it after playing in the sand lol

Regular spray paint works wonders
|
I just wire wheeled then primed and hit it with 2coats of gloss black rattle can. Looks good and touch up is easy
