| Post subject: | POR 15 Paint for Black Frame and other parts |
See lots of questions about painting frame and other black parts. Has anyone used POR 15? I used it on the seat pan and it worked extremely well (still looks like the day I did it 4 years ago. It is brush on only and has very long dry time but it is very durable(much like powder coat but not near as thick). I used it on a couple of pieces and it is very hard and thin. It is so hard I can not sand it. It covers well and is easy to brush on. It is available in various shine levels and even has a high heat version. |

I use KBS Rust Seal which is similar to POR. I use MEK thinner to dilute it and I paint it on with a brush. It never goes on flawlessly for me, so I light sand the coating then cover it with gloss black. The coating lasts many years! |

I've used POR15 on my car. and it worked very well, but it is important to follow all the 3 steps to get good adhesion. Don't skip the POR15 Metal Prep. It is highly toxic, and must be used with a good respirator. It flows on nicely, but needs to be top coated for UV protection. |

"Top Coat" meaning POR-15 and KBS Rust seal should be considered primer coats. Paint over them with Rustoleum or another high quality paint and you'll be in good shape. |
