My truck body parts are now all over the floor. Everything that can come off is off. All the bolts are shot and many broke as they were rusted solid. So, I'm replacing every nut and bolt after painting the parts. The new ones are zinc plated so how will they take paint? The paint will be stripped and we will use epoxy primer on everything so not sure if I need to do anything else?
Really can't find un-plated hardware, unless you buy in box quantities from the national suppliers. Don't need hundreds!
