All I gotta say is IMO POR-15 is the best stuff out there pretty much. Might pay a bit more for it but it's a product you can trust. Some of those rust prevention things scare me a little and I don't even know if they really work 5 or 10 years down the road.

That stuff is amazing isn't it? It's hard to believe it flows out that way, but it sure does.

I agree with Shawn F, For the money POR 15 is worth the money, Just for the piece of mind. I've even sprayed it on to my clawfoot tub ,I Sprayed it on the porcelain and six years later ,still no flaws.

Holy chit, that was brushed on? I'm using Eastwood's right now on my frame and under the cab. It doesn't go on that smooth but it also doesn't have that gloss.

I'm doing the bed section in March, I might try the POR15 instead of the Eastwood product. I went with Eastwood because it was directly compared to POR15 and held up better.

I'm top coating with JD Blitz Black so not worried about UV protection.

por 15 is the bomb. tank sealed a motorcycle tank 6 years ago no problems with the gin in my gas. did all the galvanized parts on my flats boat trailer at the same time . leaf springs still look good where i used to replace them every 4-5 years . i got lazy on the rear floor pans of my dodge which had pin holes . used two layers of glass matt and five coats of por15 . those pans are solid and now hidden under the carpet. flows out great and now they have some high temp options...
