Electrophoretic coating is far from perfect on later Morgan trad chassis though particularly close to bracing points. I regularly find tell tale signs of incipient rust in such nooks and crannies despite the process claims. Fortunately these show up well against the black underseal and get treated with aerosol applied black waxoil/underseal which does creep into where it's needed.



The most important thing for powder coating and e-coatingis thorough preparation and cleaning of the metals.
When powder coating, repulsive fields are created in corners due to the static charge. This must be carefully observed when coating with powder in order to achieve the correct coating thickness.
