- Hello shop-talkers! Anyone out there have experience with the above two products _or_ have a recommendation for another similar product? I have a gate at the front of the property that needs to be pa

- My experiences with POR-15 have all been failures. It has lasted no more then a few months before rust would come through again. That's with both their black and silver formulations. The black would

- My one use of POR-15 also failed and started rusting again within a month or so. I have successfully used Eastwoods Rust Encapsulator on 2 outdoor projects. It worked well enough that I am using on m

- Thanks Mike!! I have seen the Eastwood's stuff and wondered if it was decent for stuff that was outdoors. And since it also comes in a spray bomb, that would also help as well....... -jeff d

- FWIW, I used POR-15 on several parts in my '74 about 2 years ago. So far I haven't seen any evendence of rust, peeling, flaking, or anything nasty. YMMV, but it seems to work for me. BillG

- It is my understanding that POR-15 (and some other similar products) are not UV stable. They change from black to "ugly" if exposed to the sun. Check into this before you do an outdoor gate, unless y

- Friend of mine gave a talk at the club just last night ... he said that when topcoating POR-15, you *must* either sand the surface (which he said is a pain, the stuff is really hard once it sets up)

- Another option (as recommended by POR) is to spray on a regular primer while the POR coat is still tacky; that seemed to have worked pretty well for me.

- I tried to send this earlier, but it didn't make it (don't think I edited it) As a test, I put por15 on a rusty spot about 3" in diameter on the roof of my truck. The truck sat outside in the pacific

- I used silver POR-15 about three weeks ago. It turned to a light metallic green in just over a week. The instructions claim that failure to properly clean and prepare surfaces are the cause of failur
