Internal Frame Coating and Cavity Wax??

Is Eastwood Internal Frame Coating like a paint in that it hardens after application? If so, is it a good idea to use Cavity Wax on top of it? Thanks.

Hmmm..good question. Sort of "looks" wax-like.

Re: Internal Frame Coating and Cavity Wax??

Well, after a lot of looking via the internet, people refer to the Internal Frame Coating as "drying". After more searching, it appears that Eastwood now has a new coating. The original is "Internal Frame Coating" and is listed as a phenolic resin with zinc. The new one is "Internal Frame Coating Plus" which is listed as a urethane coating. The "Plus" says it can be top coated so guessing the original is not paintable. So, still don't know if there is any benefit to coating the original with cavity wax or painting over it.

If you wash your car any, cavity wax won't hurt a thing to have it anywhere you can get it in.
