schultz or stonechip??

[emu]

As per the title really.

 

Which is going to give me the most durable protection under my arches and on the floorpan? Im thinking probably schultz, but just want to be sure.

 

The underside is staying black so being overpaintable isnt an issue

 

If it makes any difference, it'll be out of an aerosol

I think both are pretty similar and can be got in a variety of colours too. Personally I find stone chip to be the less durable of the two, being slightly thinner

mate i used both, stone chip dries like paint and is thickand durable whereas schutz is a little tacky still when dry.

 

I red oxided and primed then a nice thick coat of stone chip and schutz'd afterwards.

 

stonechip can be painted over too

I wonder what bitumastic wall paint would be like.

 

Planning to do the whole underside up to door bottom level on the Almighty, so will be watching...

I'll go with that then I think........Ive done under one wing with a spare can of stonechip already (just to see) so ill schutz over that and do the same elsewhere

 

I did think about stonechipping, then body colouring it all, but im too lazy to keep it looking clean

Ok lets sort this out now, schutz is an over paint protective coating, its not over paintable and looks shit and messy, but it gives a really good protective coating.

Stonechip on the otherhand is a layer of paint, its thick durable and when used properly then overpainted looks original and gives a beautiful finish, but if put on too fine can chip.

 

Personally i would take the time, key up the surfaces, etch prime then stonechip (using a suction gun and compressor) before getting out the spray gun and painting the finish colour over the top.
