Stop rust permanently with POR-15®. Unlike "ordinary" paints, POR-15® is a rust preventive coating designed for application directly on rusted, seasoned or abrasive-blasted metal surfaces. POR-15® will stop rust permanently in its tracks and leave a beautiful, rock-hard, nonporous flexible finish that won't chip, crack, or peel. Made in USA.
The secret lies in the POR-15® curing process. POR-15® cures by drawing moisture from the atmosphere. Ordinary paint cures through the process of solvent evaporation through pores (that's why you can smell a paint job for weeks). These pores allow microscopic amounts of air and moisture to gradually reach the surface of the painted metal; and, if the paint goes unwaxed for very long, rust will form right back through it.
When using POR-15®, there are no pores in the drying process. Therefore, moisture and oxygen cannot reach the metal surface; and, it PREVENTS RUST FROM RECURRING by isolating the metal from further exposure to moisture. Without moisture present, steel can't rust. POR-15® is so tough that some customers describe it as "Powder Coat in a can".
Use it on: your chassis, fenders, floor boards, bumpers, trunk areas, engine areas, rocker panels, floor pans, firewalls, chassis components, wheel wells, truck beds, gas tank exteriors, springs, trailers, trucks, tractors, or anything that you want to permanently protect from rust, stone chips, or other common "paint" failures.
POR-15® Rust Preventive Paint is sensitive to UV light (sun) and must be topcoated with POR-15® Topcoats or other paints, including lacquer-based paints to prevent fading and discoloring. Topcoating is not required for areas not exposed to sunlight such as: inner fenders, floor boards, trunk areas, engine areas, rocker panels, undercoating of frames, etc. Always brush or spray on thin coats, minimum 2 coats. Lead-free.
Gloss Silver - Contains metal filler and should be used on badly rusted, pitted areas to fill small holes and add strength to the metal. It will fill in small pits or holes better than black.
