I think its funny how many people have opinions on things without ever doing tests or experiments. Thanks for being one of the few who actually find REAL answers.
Loved this video and thank you for the follow up. Did the same on my 05 Toyota Tundra. Used needle scaler, air impact, wire wheel on angle grinder, pressure wash, phosphoric acid (kleen strip concrete metal prep) (PS do not rinse phosphoric acid) Rustoleum rust reformer, then flat black rustoleum. It's a frame in the rust belt... It's a war...Of course we have to keep going back for touch ups. We could nuke... pull the box and cab everything off the frame, sandblast, stop at the bank then epoxy coat, but if we had we still would have to do periodic maintenance. The way we did it, rust does not gain ground and our truck will be good for as long as we have them. Matthew 6:19,20-Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where rust corrodes, but in heaven where rust doth not corrode.
have you tried what they sue in the ships?? iron oxide? but time to time they ahve to reat small areas.. ima goin to test rust converter, let dry amd then iron oxide.on it,, just for test ther eisa way to avoid rust forever, but its a lot of work,
i payinted a very rusted exhaust, ,, with old iron oxide, ( it had tin) i tlasted many year and rusted never appeared again..until i sold the car. its forbiden stuff now, i will rty iorn oxide witout tin they dont do it anymore
Native Mainer here. Lanolin oil coatings like NH oil undercoating are the only things I've found that can actually slow the progression of rust. Yes, it needs to be applied annually but its so worth it. Spring for two coats a year if you can afford it. My brother had a 1998 Ranger that he drove to 345k miles till the transmission lost nearly every forward gear. His truck didnt have the trademark Ranger frame rust/rot thanks to 4 years of oil undercoating.
To get rust of the boxed in part of the frame you can get a cheap drain auger, tie on a few chain links, put the auger in there and connect a drill. It chips the rust off pretty well! I’m using oil coating inside my frame.
This was a good informative video and I appreciate your time in making it. We’ve got to keep up good maintenance and make our trucks last for the long haul. Keep up the good work.
I like Rust-Oleum high performance red primer , for rusty metal , people always have negative things to say but never any proof or reasoning , it's worked well for me , I'll keep using it lol great video thanks
Yep, in my opinion it’s worth it to put more than an old truck is worth into it if you’re doing it yourself. It’s cheaper than a new vehicle and you can fix it yourself! Unlike a new one! And the tools are always cheaper than getting it done professionally unless it’s A/C work, which is optional.
@@KekeeBlackyep. Got my girlfriends fathers old cateye with 220k for free, not running after sitting for 5+ years. New oil, fuel filter and injectors and it’s running like new. So far I’ve put less than $1,500 into it and I have a truck with a fully sanded and painted frame, new brake calipers, pads, rotors, and new tires.
Just a heads up that Rustoleum came out with a new "Rust Reform and Seal" Rubberized, rust dissolving paint for vehicles that's been getting rave reviews everywhere. It is much more effective at dissolving rust, keeping rust away, and the finish is much more durable than paint.
people on the internet always bugging, completely unrelated, but i crashed my old dodge dakota bent the frame in 2 places i pulled it straight as much as i could with a chain and a pole and putting the truck in reverse, hurt my neck straightened the frame a bit. and drove the truck problem free for over 3 years. i got rid off it because i blew 2 rear axles in it from doing a bunch of burnouts.
you can stop rust under your car, spray motor oil ,, every year,, avoida rubbers.. if its a a very ahrd rust provcess you may need two aplication, dont wash your car under never ,, jsut spry it,let the dirt soak it,, a very clever mechnic teaytche me that,, so i avoid rust on my motrocicle for years, and year..sold it as new
The rustoleum is holding up better than the springs, but is has degraded a bit. A good annual oil coating with something like Fluid Film will slow down or even stop the advancement of rust. I used to spray it when I lived in NH and it made my Jeep last a lot longer than most.
@@termonostruman Absurd comment. Lots of people use Fluid Film, Woolwax, etc successfully. Undercoatings fail when "shops" slather used motor oil and other crap under the car.
In Canada an Oil Spray is sometimes used .It will seep into joints and cracks that paint cannot go . it woks good But just like any thing else if it is in a spot that gets hit with water or dirt it must be replaced in those areas.There are shops that spray oil for $100.00
spray with rust converter,, when rust appears sand paper the local and aply again,, dosnt last a along but you can contrl it or aplly iron red oxide,, last longer..
You can only ever do what you can do to help frames in conditions like this. As long as you fight the fight you'll be OK, only offering this as suggestion, no criticism at all. 1) Use an anti salt wash in spring and give the whole frame a good cleaning with it and touch up any bare rusty spots. The wash kills off the chemical action that causes the rust. 2) In autmn before the salting begins again spray the whole thing with chainsaw bar oil or other oil based protection that can be washed off if necessary including the inside of the rails etc. Good work keeping it on the road and good luck.
Would it help to set up a sprinkler on your drive and drag it under from front to back when you get home or even park on it with a 1 min timer set to wash the salt off at night? I don’t have this problem in Aus though
Not bad considering you didn't remove the body or bed to get to the frame $80 bucks not bad the frame repair was completely adequate maybe next time paint and then later treat with fluid film.
Your frame repair is fine. I wouldn’t waste my time repainting just oil coat it. Brush painting with rust oleum does last longer but is a pain in the ass to do.
HELD UP 💯 I REMEMBER THE OTHER VIDEO DOESN'T SEEM LIKE 2 YEARS AGO. O YES WE LOST 2 YEARS WITH THE COVI.. I REMEMBER WAITING FOR THE NEXT VIDEO DURING THAT TIME WHILE MESSING WITH MY OWN MOWERS IN A BONE DRY FIELD WE HAD A HEATWAVE THAT YEAR . 😎💯
The problem with that is when the paint chips, the fluid film can’t creep over and self-heal. And then water and salt is free to creep under the paint and wreak havoc. That’s just my opinion.
Not bad, if it’s working for you- let the haters hate… I’ve seen where there’s some better stuff than rusoleum out there, but it costs more… so go for it and keep your rig on the road…
the rust in your car is very severe, time to time you ahve tocheck it, sand papaer rust and aplly iron oxide..it works for me if it keeps reapearing sue rust voverter and then aplyy iron over it
100 yars ago they rsut proff everything for life... as a amchinsit i learnt it from a 87 years guy.. but if i tell chemical companies will go banrupt. you will never have rust anymore under you car.
Looks like it worked to me pretty good. After you get it all done again some guys would spray the entire underside with bar and chain oil or fluid film. Just another idea. Maybe that does not help or work--I do not know. Thanks for the videos.

If you don't rinse the phosphoric acid it will continue to corrode and make your metal much weaker
Watched the original video and thought I would like to see how that hods up after a few years. Thanks for the update, good job

That looks pretty solid for a Maine truck.
I say that performed decent. Fair amount of rust showing up again. I’d bet if you used a lanolin coating every year you’d fully stop the rust.
The rustoleum is holding up better than the springs, but is has degraded a bit. A good annual oil coating with something like Fluid Film will slow down or even stop the advancement of rust. I used to spray it when I lived in NH and it made my Jeep last a lot longer than most.
good common sense philosophy about vehicle rust.....you have matched the restoration effort with the age of the truck...
Yeah that held up real good Goodwell thank you for the video tell John I said hi
I swear by Fluid Film. My Ranger is 13 years old and still has factory finish on bolt heads. Frame is solid. Shackles? Awesome. I’m in Ohio.
stop propaganda

Thanks for easing my conscience! I will definitely use this frame paint and primer on my car frame now :)
$80.00 in product and probably 8 hours of Physical Labor saved your Ranger for another 2 Years.

Rust reformer works wonders
May i ask what is the lift you are using?
Have you looked into doing oil undercoating?
Not bad considering you didn't remove the body or bed to get to the frame $80 bucks not bad the frame repair was completely adequate maybe next time paint and then later treat with fluid film.
Wire brush. Clean and degrease. Owterol rust inhibitor. Red oxide then two top coats
If it works it works. Most people with opinions never work on there own junk.
Your frame repair is fine. I wouldn’t waste my time repainting just oil coat it. Brush painting with rust oleum does last longer but is a pain in the ass to do.
Where did you buy or how did you build that lift?
How many coats the first time?
I get that it worked well but, why not just use an oil spray like NH oil? They are far superior since they flow around where its needed.
Man can’t even tell it was patch but good looking work. Where about s in Maine do you live? We should get together some time and ride some tractors
Come join the Drag racers.

Man I’d hate to live in snowy salty conditions year round. Luckily Texas doesn’t get much snow

We shouldban the use of salt!
Should have just oiled it down after you painted it, or used Fluid Film.
The problem with that is when the paint chips, the fluid film can’t creep over and self-heal. And then water and salt is free to creep under the paint and wreak havoc. That’s just my opinion.
@@KekeeBlack that's exactly what fluid film does I'm guessing you've never used it?
I feel like I'm getting a dissertation from Mr Gilbert Gottfried. I watched the whole video. :)
Looks good
I get great results with Surface Shield here in Pennsyltuky
Much better option than painting like this feller.
Not bad, if it’s working for you- let the haters hate…
I’ve seen where there’s some better stuff than rusoleum out there, but it costs more… so go for it and keep your rig on the road…
Nice, the danger Ranger soldiers on
the rust in your car is very severe, time to time you ahve tocheck it, sand papaer rust and aplly iron oxide..it works for me
if it keeps reapearing sue rust voverter and then aplyy iron over it
Thank god there's no snow in Southeast TX 😂😂
100 yars ago they rsut proff everything for life...
as a amchinsit i learnt it from a 87 years guy..
but if i tell chemical companies will go banrupt.
you will never have rust anymore under you car.
gotta protect those chemical companies
Looks like it worked to me pretty good. After you get it all done again some guys would spray the entire underside with bar and chain oil or fluid film. Just another idea. Maybe that does not help or work--I do not know. Thanks for the videos.
Bar & chain oil dissolves right away under salt and gravel, because it's less of a protective barrier and more of a moisture repellent.
Two years, wow. Talk about a road tax..
If it's Made by Human hands, sooner or later it will break, corrode or both... Good call on the Rustoleum.. Best Wishes from Central Mississippi.
Love the attitude change in the comments😂
Bro don't give a dang for his lungs
Only the manufacturer can weld on frames lol. Any other weld will instantly turn the frame axles and engine to dust. Trust me I do it all the time lol
I would've scraped it all, used a rust converter, primed, painted. Then covered it in fluid film. It would be perfect.
