Cosmo,

Others who have used the stuff will be able to answer you from their 
specific experience.  However, just recently I was at my local NAPA 
store and they are now selling the line of POR-15 products.  While 
there I picked up a catalog that listed all their products and had 
information on each product.  Or, you can go to www.por15.com to view 
their website and get the whole scoop.

Cheers,

Aaron

  Hi List!
A friend of mine has a TR6 that he has been restoring
'on & off' for severial yr. [I know this sounds VERY
familar to many]. He's noticing that parts of the
frame is getting some 'surface rust?' [I haven't seen
it, & I don't know if it was cleanened & not 'cover
painted' or left bare metal]. I suggested that he use
por-15 on it. His reply was that he thought that ALL
RUST had to be removed.

Now I do know that there's many 'stages' in doing
por-15 properly. BUT  I do recall many replies in the
past that stated that por-15 will work 'well?' if
placed over surface rust? If so, then i was thinking
of also using it on my everyday pick up truck with
little surface preperation. [just to get another 5->10
yr. out of it].

So my question is: How 'clean?' the the surface need
to be for:
1- Long term saving qualities [restoration of Frame
off]?
2- Short term? [Rusted surface {it has pitting} that
hasn't any holes, but greater than 'surface rust?']
