Undercoat or Rubberized paint. Looks, works, and holds up hella good!

I would have put the ressie behind the frame rails in case of a crash or a big rock. JMO here another pic of the rubberized paint.

With this kind of paint you just need to scuff it up with a Wire wheel on slow on the dremal, or you can do it with a drill with a wire wheel attachment. Also try to get all the rust off you can. I use Crest Rubber Coat. Stock No. AC-R. :)

greg I don't know how much it costs, I got it from a uncle who owns a Automotive Bodyshop. It's really intented as a undercoat for cars and trucks to protect the underside from rocks, glass, dirt, ect. Basically road debris. Its held up AWESOME so far, but thats only about a 2 1/2 hours of ride time then I broke my wrist. I plan on painting my swinger, and motor mounts soon. I painted my footpegs and grab bar saterday but I left them at his shop to dry.:cool:

Don't know about Wally world but I think Autozone or O-Riley's would be your best bet. Also might wanna check a Local paint place or bodyshop.
