Good To know.. I have seen and used this product in the Harshest environments. Chiller towers in a power plant. Vert. turbine motors and pumps..... all in saltwater,, very very salty and wet.. and wastewater pumps and mixers.. I plan on using on my bracket as well. I will roll it on and sand between coats. I will use as a faring compound as there will be the top that needs to be fair...Yea I love this stuff very easy to use..from there 1111 to 1341 and so on.. Will try the 1341 on maybe the lower units of the mercs..

Default bracket is back

ready for prep work.. I took the bracket to Braddock Metalluregy in Jacksonville. Had them re temper to 67-69 BRH I then took the bracket to my co- worker who builds Rollcages for Dragcars..Underpresser Racing. He welded the platform back to the tub.. Will need to knock the welds down and blast ,chem clean, then coat.. Looks like a great week for it No humidity
