Found this website through a link on TheSamba

This stuff looks pretty good, almost like it is miracle stuff.
Anyone heard of it, maybe even used it? I think this would be AWESOME if it is as good as it appears!

Looks awsome, Takes your square tubing and makes it round and gets rid of the nasty welded 90 degree bends in favour of nice rolled bars. Those before and after photo's are a joke.

From their surface prep document - "All blasted surfaces should be coated immediately after blasting. If it is not possible and in case the blasted surface would develop flash rust, an attempt shall be made to remove it by wire brush and the brushed surface must be dusted off immediately before coating application." But they state little or no surface prep needed on the home page.

I smell Bullshit. Two lies and you out.

I found 2 reviews from rodding magazines where they said they are happy with the results, although, the one has not painted it to see how it holds up through the winter.
Those reviews seem positive about it. Will put the links up

Excellent restoration product similar to POR 15 both are enamel type paints they cure absolutely rock hard from moisture . They are excellent for chassis parts suspension and are self leveling paints so no brush strokes goes very smooth like its been sprayed. They cure so hard you can hit it with a hammer!
Both are 3 part systems and the integrity of the job is reliant on all three prep and paint steps.
Also they are effected by UV light so if they are exposed to direct sunlight they go mat from the original gloss finish .
There are top coats that stop this but as I generally only use it on suspension parts its not a concern.
Warning dont get it on your skin !!! It will be there for some time.\
