I didn't get the metal ready this time. I used it before on the back part of the frame and it worked well. The frames more rusty at the front and has a lot more hard places to get at. No matter what I put on it it will rust again. This is not going to be a show truck. They want WAY to much for that stuff. $30 for a little bottle. I will take my chances without it, the rust "etches" it enough
