I’ve used por15 without even using the cleaner and metal prep and have had great success with all the cars I’ve used it on. And it’s crazy cuz it really stops rust from continuing to form.
Thanks for the Vid
In my experience with painting, there are three things that are important:
1) clean
2) clean
3) clean
POR15 works great on stuff that’s hard to reach…… If you can clean it off really good with a pressure washer (highly recommended). If you running low on funds, you can use Dawn dishwashing liquid (little bit of elbow grease with a brush works great).
The “ metal prep” actually has a little bit of phosphoric acid. So, don’t let it sit on your hands too long. the sulfuric acid eats away the oxidation and etches the ferrous metal (the grab). A Substitute might be diluted CLR…. it does the same thing. You can also go to a pool store and get a 1 gal bottle and dilute it…🤷♂️. Just some helpful ideas to save a few bucks.
The best result is when you can roll it on with a fine Nap roller….. but we only use POR for the hard to reach heavy metal areas… I used a brush and got a good result. Worked really well and I was happy with it. 👍 it’s expensive, but if you want to do it right, use POR 🤷♂️.
The best thing about POR 15 is that it works really well in damp areas. Steel sweats with change in temperature and humidity and it does a really good job - it’s tough stuff.. But remember, it needs 2 COATS.
Rustoleom oil based paint works great too, I did it to my duramax three coats and it's hard as powdercoat 🤣
were you using that Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel Oil based?
what do you think the best tune is for an l5p?
Please give us some updates on this.. I’ve been thinking of using this product
pretty cool, thanks for sharing
I taped off my truck and bought a tyvak suit and face shield I sprayed mine on it covered the entire underside
Hey, I coded my frame on my F150. I got the eight dollar can spray paint from Home Depot. It’s rubber it’s advertised as rubberized coating. I should’ve watched your video first. I should’ve used the POS coding. I’m not sure I’m really happy with this spray can I used the rust is kind of surfacing through the paint. I’m not sure how I feel about it yet. Thanks for the video.😊
What code did you give your frame is that something new you need to do before you coat your frame. CZcamsr Real World Garage doesn't recommend POR 15 it cracks and comes off after a period of time, so you might have made the right choice.😊
Home Depot rustolium rubberized spray paint $8 a can undercoating it worked good thank you for the reply it works pretty good although there are some rust spots that are bleeding through. I may need a second coat.
@@justindhitchcock1806that stuff is trash. You're going to be touching up for the life of the vehicle now. Too late now. Can't remove it. Por15 lasts 10 years or longer. It's durable
Also a roller would have worked great on that trailer deck
Yea, that was what Devan was thinking
Can you add link for all products used in the video?? @JW Montoya
How did you get the paint off your hands?
You should put a disclaimer in the video that this is not a way to keep actual rust from forming. It makes it look better for a southern truck but the paint will eventually chip and rust will form behind the paint and it will trap moisture making the issue worse. Not a concern in the south but for vehicles up north this is worse than doing nothing
You do know about por15 right? I hope you are not comparing this product to a regular paint. Because it's not. Your comment makes it seem that way. Por15 is magical. But you gotta use their cleaner and metal prep products for best results.
@@johnny257yea por15 is the shit
How’s it look a year later?
Anyway you can spray this?
How many people are entering your giveaway...odds looking good
Farm implement paint and a Harbor Frait spray gun.
No, por15 and a brush.
Go spill some brake fluid on it and report back. It's going to melt your paint. Won't happen if you do it right with por15.
Or you can use orange cleaner. It comes right off or alcohol works also
I've found Rust-Oleum paint in a can or implement paint works well
Does anyone use oxalic acid?
Flex seal any good?
Also consider Rustoleum undercoating. Purchased at HD. Sprays on, little overspray. Just pressure wash and go. So far my frame in Florida is rust free. Much easier to apply.
I tried that here in MN and it wears off after a year or two
Are you getting ready to spend more money and cover the spots bleeding through? You just put a bandaid on it, not stopping the problem. Por15 cleaner, metal prep, and then brush on por15 for a complete durable lifetime finish. It's NOT the same as paint, which wipes away with brake fluid. 😂
Yeah I tried that por15 it rusted back out, done all 3 steps, they did send me new paint done what they told me still rusted back some
Where do you live?
@@JWMontoya West Virginia, an the frame was never took out of the garage
Chassis saver 🙌🙌
@@KSDRIVEWAYGUYS yeah I’ve used that to
Did the little top coat can work for the whole truck?
clean with mineral spirits. your hands
Update?
Still holding up
Great job doesn't spray paint thinners remove it from your hands it works with most paints. Watch CZcamsr Real World Garage and see what he thinks of POR 15
Dont use rubberized coating ever on a frame. It looks good after its applied but it does way more harm in the long run. POR15 is supposed to be top coated with a uv protectant paint. I wouldnt use it either honestly. Id paint it with actual frame paint and then coat it with pfc once a year.
Bro! Help me delete my 2021 L5P, keep getting “exhaust filter needs to clean” messages. Definitely dont wanna trade for a ford😅! 🙏🏻
Why would you trade for another truck with a def filter then?
Are you crazy? You have applied the product over the rust ! It won’t work much time!
You're painting over rust. I DON'T get i🤔🤔🤔
Can we get an update?
