Used the POR-15 Caliper Paint kit on my car back in 2009. 12 years later, looks almost as good as the day I applied it. Held up amazing! Just follow the instructions and apply in humid conditions for best results. Just this year I had some lally-columns in my crawl space there were subject to moisture and started to have scale and flaking rust present, especially at the base of the columns. I scraped all the loose rust off, wire brushed down the columns, used the degreaser, wire brushed the degreaser in again, rinsed with water to clean the surface. A day later used the metal prep applying liberally for 30-mins and then let dry. Went back a few days later after all surfaces were dry, then applied POR-15 gray rust preventative on the columns in two coats. Being in the basement, where its pretty humid and will never see UV, just the rust preventative coat should suffice for many years to come. Bye-bye rust! This stuff is no joke though....follow all the safety precautions. Its not for the faint of heart!

I hate to be that guy, but everyone should be asking if that urethane paint and especially the hardener contain isocyanates. If so, you can build up an allergy from exposure. No bueno. It's odorless, so organic vapor cartridges can be used, but you won't know when they're full. Also, your eyes can absorb these solvents. Supplied air full face respirator is the right way to paint, especially with hardeners. If you're cool risking it, fine, but please read what's on the ingredients list and educate yourself before you compromise your health or your family's. At least have good ventilation where you paint. This is not the same as using a can of duplicolor.

I worked in a body shop when urethane paint came out. We used Amerflint. The first time it was used in the shop I found I was extremely allergic to it. My boss opened the can across the shop and mixed the paint. I suddenly couldn't breath. One of my coworkers saw me and went to a nearby pharmacy and bought me an inhaler. This saved my life. I warn anyone that may have asthma or grew up with asthma to stay away from urethane paint that uses isicyinates. Good luck.

Great stuff! I'm about to shrink wrap my arms to finish my frame and fender wells. BTW if you have a steel, F150 with fender flares (FX4 etc) carefully pull the rear flares off (temporarily) and pump this stuff into the mounting holes if you live in the rust-belt. Poke around with a steel pick using a mirror and a flashlight... remove rusty chunks and rotting foam... flush with garden hose and compressed air. Dry and apply. Foam rollers and foam sticks are helpful. Drive something else for 3 or 4 days...wait 24 hours between coats. Get pints from Advance Auto Parts. Use old vitamin bottles for left over paint. (partial cans dry up fast and the lid will seal itself shut... you'll need a church-key to pop a hole or 2). Tip: Adhesive foam stuck onto a hacksaw blade works really well for tight nooks and crannies!

@deankay44346 жыл бұрын
The "Metal Prep" used at 3:40 leaves an iron phosphate conversion coating on the metal prior to coating with P.O.R. This basically the same as "Fast Etch" from Eastwood. I would like to use P.O.R. on the frame and bottom of the cab of a 67 C10, but spent the real money for SPI epoxy primer for the soon to be painted panels. I can do only one panel at a time after loosing my huge garage for my wife's newer house. A Retire ASE Master tech of 30 yrs. quickly fills up any garage after bringing home all of the tool boxes and 50 some plastic boxes of special tools. The SPI epoxy has a 7 day open window to apply catalyzed filler and sand to flat. The epoxy & filler cure together. Cleaned panels that are sand with 80 grit, pre-clean prep and dry, are good to go.The sanded filler can be covered to be water proof with SPI epoxy primer again diluted with a urethane grade reducer (Their Specs) to act as a sealer while I go to the next panel. Sucks, but the only plan I can handle. With trucks, the back of the cab and bed front (At least) have to be painted while apart. The aged SPI epoxy allows for 400 grit maroon/red nylon pad action with a pre cleaner to prep for painting base coat. The older C10 allows for complete disassembly of the bed, so P.O.R. can go inside the bedsides up to the post stake holes. The would add extreme protection at a reduced cost. I just want see someone show actual P.O.R. over 3 - 5 years of normal use in the areas that see salt on roads for 6 month a year. This is last project and my daily driver when done. Then son gets it. Show us some older P.O.R. product that was applied right and driven. That's all most of us want to see.

In fact I've used POR15 before over right over lightly wire brushed rust and it stopped the rust cold and lasted 30 years so far. so I think the acid etching phosphate metal prep is completely unnecessary. Once you completely seal the surface from oxygen rust simply cannot spread or worsen. That was the whole deal with POR 15 back when I discovered it 35 years ago.

Having read so much about this paint, I thought I would try it. My test is challenging for any paint - rust-proofing the underside of a lawn mower deck. What I did: after removing any loose rust, I applied two coats of this paint and allowed several days to dry before running the mower. I ran the mower for one grass cutting session - about an hour of continuous use, then inspected the painted surface. The results: this paint tends to peel off in sheets (as others have found) and bonds significantly less well than a conventional wax-based car underseal (which I normally use). A couple of things to note: - I did not use the recommended two stage preparation process. I will therefore try this next and report back on results. - the exceptional high cost - especially if the preparation stages are used. My conclusion: this paint, when used alone, ie without costly surface preparation, is ineffective for rust protecting in high impact areas, particularly when applied to pre-painted or non-rusted surfaces - where bonding is particularly poor.

I have applied the preventer to the inside of my chassis on one side-- without using the POR 15 Solvent- just not sure if I do use the Solvent what amount to mix with the preventer

Based off of my small can of por15, you can cut/dilute por15 with their solvent. Follow their directions and instructions and you should end up with very desirable results.

I'd like to know what all the POR products cost for this video because I bet having it powder coated would have been much less money and 100% less work.
@richardschofield22014 жыл бұрын
Definitely less work and probably less money. Paint alone for my chassis was £150. I could have got it blasted and powder coated for £250 (that's a good price) but powder coating won't last as long. Water eventually gets under it. Also, I know I will need to carry out welds for the build that I can't plan for yet and touching up powder coating will just look a mess.

I'm prepping a chassis for POR 15. Did the Cleaner Degreaser and Metal Prep yesterday. I have a question about the Metal Prep. I must have left it dry too long and must have applied too much with the brush. After thoroughly rinsing, there was a lot of white dust still on the surface. I have rinsed it off many times, even brushing it down while rinsing. Must of the white residue is gone. Can I use Eastwood Pre Paint to get rid of the little powder that's still on the surface? Thanks!
@markburrows91054 жыл бұрын
Hey Robert, I've used POR-15 quite a bit thru the years. A few times (after PREP) there was a lot of white residue and I was nervous about it. But I went for it and years later the parts are still looking great. Seems like as long as you hose it off with a hose equipped with a nozzle under average pressure you'll be good. Just wonder, if you slide your finger across the prepped surface, is it covered in white powder? If not, it should be ready to paint. FYI, I've been using a prepping/etching product from Home Depo, with great results. It's about $16 a gallon and that really helps the project budget. It's Phosphoric Acid so take all the safety precautions. It's by Klean-Strip, called Concrete Etch & Metal Prep + Rust Inhibitor. Ya know as long as i'm giving out secrets...I use undiluted Simple Green (100% strength) as my first step to clean & degrease. About $10 a gallon. Use the money saved to buy a couple good spray bottles. I got a gallon of each and 2 sprayers for about $30. That was 2 years, and quit a few projects ago, and I still have more than half of each left. That's my 2 cents, good luck with the project.

If you pour it out of the can like that you're not going to be able to reuse the lid of more than a few times if that. The stuff will dry up no matter how little time it's exposed to air. So don't buy the gallon size and expected to last for weeks. It's pretty good stuff but it's definitely not perfect probably nothing is. Maybe it works better if you can get both sides of the metal. If you're in the Rust Belt of America you're going to have to keep applying probably every year or other year. The stuff isn't cheap so don't let it go to waste

@billyhw993 жыл бұрын
With the cost of all the different layers, and the labour required to apply all those layers properly, it's probably cheaper just to save your money and time and just buy a replacement part later when the original has rusted through.

I have tried to use black POR 15. I went through all the prep steps but still had unsatisfactory results. I love the hard, high gloss deep luster finish. Problem is when it dries there are tiny specs through out the surface. Look like sand. I contacted tech support at POR they said to apply thinner coat, I’m applying with a brush. I tried that same result. I even tried to filter the product. I did not shake it so it is not air bubbles. Any thoughts ??
@gm-lb9oe3 жыл бұрын
I think you got solvent pop. Sand down the area with 320 w/d and re coat the area. Put a coat on thats un thinned, and brush slowly with brush tipped at a 45 degree angle. Let me know if it flattened out

Have heard nothing but good things about Por15. Only question I have is everything is rinsed with "water". How do you rinse the inside flooring? Simply wiping it with a wet sponge doesn't seem correct. and anything else would let water into small holes and cracks.
