Got all the repairs done to the "new" mower deck , all I need to
do now is bolt stuff back on it - after a sandblast and some paint
. To my critics - I think you might have been confused , the deck
with the serious cancer is going to be scrapped . The best parts
of both will be kept . --

I would have used POR-15 on this deck:

I haven't decided what to coat it with , there's a chance I can
get it done with Rhino Liner . A good friend runs a car resto
business and he's a dealer . He's also the one who has the
sandblaster I'll be using to clean it up . I'd like to have it
powder coated , but the budget won't go there . Probably end up
using an industrial enamel paint . --

Because much of the metal is eaten a way, I don't think powder
coating is a good idea. I think it's faster and easier to use POR-15
which gets hard as hell. It drives very much like a ceramic. I think
this is the way to go on metal that's severely compromised like your
deck is. If the metal was in great shape I'd powder coat it. I would
not use Rhino Liner period because I don't think it's really meant
for an application like this.

Which deck are you referring to as "being eaten away" ? I'm not going to
use the one with holes in it , that one is going on the scrap heap - I've
already stripped most everything but the wheels from it and I'll be taking
those off too . The other one has some pitting , but is overall in pretty
good shape .
