Outstanding gloss. Project still looks wet long after it's dry. We don't color sand half as many parts as we did because of this product's very smooth, high gloss finish.

Two years ago I had the outdrives on my boat professionally repainted with a black epoxy paint. It cost $850. After one summer in the water, the paint had totally lifted off the outdrives--leaving only the primer. Rather than spend another $850, I cleaned them good with PRE Paint prep and tried repainting them with two coats of Extreme Chassis Balck Gloss. This fall when I pulled the boat the outdrives were intact. Just another use for a great product and it cost me less than $50!

Outstanding product. I am rebuilding the engine compartment of a 1970 chevelle and am using the high gloss on the upper and lower control arms. It goes on very easy and looks great. Looks alot better that I thought. I also used the Extreme satin on the frame and I am very happy with that. Even after putting on the new parts the paint holds up. Both are great products.

I'm restoring an old motorcycle, and did a lot of research about what kind of paint to use for painting the frame and all of the other parts that would use the same paint. I wanted something that would look good and last for many years. I had read all of the various positive and negative results from people using powder coating, and I also wanted to keep my restoration costs within reason. I ended up choosing Eastwood's Extreme Chassis Black and primer because they were reasonably priced, and supposedly long-lasting and durable.

I first used Eastwood's Dekote to strip the original paint from the frame and parts, and then used Eastwood's Oxysolve that dissolves the rust and leaves behind a very paintable oxide finish. Both are great products. I believe their newer product is called Rust Dissolver.

For the primer and paint, I used spray cans because I didn't want to have to deal with the messy nuisance of cleaning a spray gun. After wiping down the frame, I sprayed two light to medium coats of primer, waiting 24 hours between coats. I then sprayed two medium coats of the Extreme Chassis Black Gloss Paint, again waiting 24 hours between each coat. The results are very impressive. Needless to say, I'm glad I did my research. I made sure the first coat of paint went on light to medium, and the second coat medium to heavy, leaving an even wet coat appearance, but being very careful not to lay it on too heavy in fear of running or sagging.

My only complaint is the spray nozzle. PAM no-stick cooking spray uses a much better spray nozzle design, and I have to wonder why automotive paints don't use this same type.

I gave this product a 4 for quality only because of the spray nozzle.

Would I use this product again? You bet!

I recently rebuilt the 12-Bolt rear end in my 99 Camaro and wanted to finish it with a coating that is durable and looks good. After a lot of research I brushed on POR-15 but was a little dissapointed with the end result. They say it is "self leveling" but I could still see where I had overlapped layers while going around the tubes and there were inconsistencies in the color. I smoothed out the POR-15 and bought two spray cans of the Extreme Chassis Black-High Gloss. Damn this stuff works great!!! Not only is it durable, but it looks like it was sprayed from a real spray gun and cleared after. I definitely recommend using this stuff on any chassis parts if you want a great appearance and don't mind spending the extra $$$ for a better quality paint than what you can get at the hardware store.

The only downside if there is one is that it isn't cheap but then if it was cheap I don't think it would be the product it is. One can does cover quite a bit because it is not watered and thinned out like a lot of spray can paints are. It sprays good, lays down good, is very durable and holds its gloss very well. It is also a black black without much of any other tint like you see in some black paints. It can be used for a lot more than just spraying frame rails and suspension parts.
