I used to use Imron. before I switched to PPG. First of all it is what is known as a "Modified IsoCyanide" and should only be sprayed with a fresh air respirator or an airtank respirator. It took me almost three years for the Cyanide to dissipate from my blood. I had to go once a month to have blood work done to monitor it. In comparison to the other paints mentioned it costs a small fortune. I have used POR-15 on frames a decade ago and it is still not showing any evidence of rust, besides that. it is not anywhere as toxic as Imron.

Hmmm...nobody has tried the implement paint, eh?
I found some guys on the greatlakes4x4 site stating that they used it with the hardener on their Jeeps and other and it worked pretty well. I'm sure those things take a beating like a frame would.
I'll report back if it works out or not.

ive never had any luck finding hardener with the tractor supply paint around here,i know it doesnt hold up well on trailers without hardener anyway

Well, I'm done spraying/curing. So far I've nicked it a couple of times as I reassemble pieces, but I'm not sure what that means for durability. It seems harder than spray can paint, but I'm betting it will get dinged up pretty good after I ride this season. Oh, well - I'll take it to a pro this next winter and get it painted.
