I have stripped my truck completely to the bare frame, which I sandblasted this past weekend. Ugh! As I get ready to paint the frame, I have a few questions.

When I use Metal Prep the metal turns grey in places and yellowish in others, almost as if rust is starting to form. I've read that this is normal, but it looks scary. Any experience with these products?

Also, I am planning to use self-etching primer, then finish with hardened enamel. Still wondering whether gloss or satin was original. Any body have knowledge of this?

Finally, I'm still in need of a 5.83 differential in the West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania region. Could meet someone on way to/from the rally. I'm not able to go (My brother picked this weekend to get married.) Oh well, relatives!
