Re: Project I Hate Rust: Phase 1

And now with POR-15 applied. Quite a process, this stuff. I'm also surprised by how much mileage you get out of it. I bought a pack of 6 4-oz cans and poured half of one into a cup expecting to use about that much on two coats. Turns out I overestimated by a factor of 5 or so. Brushes on very thin and smooths out really nicely. It's very sensitive to any oils on the metal though. There's so much undercoating on some parts of my car that it's continually seeping out, which is making the POR-15 have a hard time covering those spots. But if there's oil seeping out it should be pretty rust-resistant anyway.
