[DML] Re: Frame+Epoxy



Sounds fine to me.  The only time I think you may have a problem is 
if you drive over some gravel and it chips or cracks.  Paint has 
poor impact resistance.  
Talking about impact resistence, I think I might try spot-powder-
coating today with my new heat gun and see if it works out.  It just 
might, providing I don't blow the powder around.  If I do, it might 
explode, and then I will never know if you can powder coat with a 
heat gun, because I will be blown up.  :-P
