Anyone out there with experience using alodine to prep their bare aluminum? I used alodine on some bare aluminum plate pieces I cut to reinforce my rear late style seat bases. Cleaned bare aluminum with water, then alcohol, then soaked in alodine for 10 minutes, then rinsed with water and...
Anyone know what will remove the hard glue residue that's seals things up between the body panels? I removed my rear seat bases and want to clean things up before painting the areas that are bare aluminum now.
My 2 man had the tires slanted out as well. With a load of 4 tires with rims they were pretty much straight up and down again again. Maybe that'll give you an idea of how much weight you need. That was with no airlift bumper or rhino carrier.

When installing pieces like this where it calls for caulking panels and putting primer down over exposed aluminum, what will work? Is there a primer that works fine with carc that is compatible. If possible I'd like to get some primer in aerosol can so I can quickly spray down and then it'll...
