Por-15??
 

Hi guys, I'm new to the site... I have been reading about por-15 and I am curious if anyone on here has used it? I want to do my underbody with it...Can you tell me where I can buy it and what type I need to buy? and how i need to prep my underbody?? any help would be awesome...thanks

I have used the Por-15 "gas tank product". I was very pleased with the results. I restored a 1961 VW Beetle. As you can imagine the tank was terrible shape from sitting idle for 10 years. Follow the instructions to the letter and I'll bet you will be impressed as well. Found the product at my local Auto Parts store.

POR15 is really, really good stuff. You have to follow the instructions EXACTLY. They sell the degreaser, first step, called Marine Clean. It will eat your skin off you, and any grease, etc. off whatever you put it on. Use care. The next step is Metal Ready, an acid etching compound. Again, fairly nasty stuff. Then you dry thoroughly and apply the POR15. The resulting coating is damned near impervious to everything. Prep is essentially removal of all and any loose rust. Wire brushing, sanding, etc. and you get the idea. Under a vehicle will suck, big time.

If you are looking for corrosion protection I can recommend "Fluid Film" Its from the industrial/agriculture biz and it simply coats anything to protect it. Its not pretty, leaves a waxy residue and needs to be reapplied every 6months to a year to be effective. It does work very well however and simply sprays on.
