Actually that rubberized spray undercoat does more harm that good.
It will actually hold the water quicker and longer than a painted surface can.......

Why would you need to paint a rubber surface??

In the early 80's I used to repair sea containers.We painted the new formed steel cross members with spay can under coat.
One of the companies complained.We had to stop using it because the new cross members where rusting so bad.
we switched to a paint and the problems stopped.
spending months on a ship in salty sea air is allot harsher that the rust your van will encounter......rust is rust none the less......

I thought about doing straight pipe or glass pack, but I don't know which will sound best. I like it loud but I also like a good subtle tone. I'll have to play with it and see what happens, gotta love return policies.


Gone vannin' I'll call you later.
