POR-15 pro's & cons

[DrDirt]

Tell me what you think of the 'paint over rust product' POR-15. Can you purchase it locally? I have looked on the internet and this stuff costs alot more than a rattle can of black paint! I'm looking for a way to cover some rust covered panels on a Jeep tub, and am not looking forward to doing alot of sanding.

There's a product called Chassis Saver from Magnet Paints that seems to have good reviews. Price might be about the same as POR-15 though. Looks like there are a few local distributors in the Peoria area too. Stacey David from Gearz TV used it on Ted Nugent's Bronco project. Think you can Youtube the video clip for more information on it. The most common complaint about those products is the cleanup, and not to get it in your hair .

It works well on rusted surfaces, however if it's clean sandblasted metal, there isn't enough roughness or something for it to adhere and stay in place. It's also not UV Stabilized and needs a top coat to protect it.
