Re: Where can I buy POR-15?

the best way to get it is to call auto body supply store in your area, if you buy it off of the web you have to pay shipping, and i want to say that pro-15 website charges a ridiculus amount to ship it, i want to say it was like 20 bucks shipping for a gallon. i get it from a local body supply store and they only charge me what it goes for on the website + taxes so thats the route i would go.

no, however they do make a reducer for it where you could spray it through a spray gun however this **** is permanent you get it on anything, it doesn't want to come off, so they say it can be sprayed but i think that would be to messy and to much of a pain in the ***, brush it, or cheat by getting the really fluffy rollers used for paint brick or other porous material and used that. i found that that was easier to do thing like the bottom of a car, atleast it keep you away from drips when using it over head

Re: Where can I buy POR-15?

Which supply store. I am in Chicago and would go to that store. I just ordered the small pint kit for $20 + shipping but would like to pick up the gallon and avoid shippin cost. As long as gas to et it is not more than shipping.

Re: Where can I buy POR-15?

Do you know how much a gallon of Por-15 will cover?? You could be using it in your next life.

Re: Where can I buy POR-15?

how much do you think I would need to do the floor pan, wheel wells, and engine bay? Does anyone have any pictures of an engine bay painted with it? Does it look ok or do you recommend painting over top of it?

Re: Where can I buy POR-15?

My 2 cents when working with POR..Be VERY mindful of the instruction that says were gloves and protective clothing unless you like the appearance of dark nails and mole like blotches on your skin. Time, a blowtorch or laser removal is needed to get this stuff off. Also will bubble slightly in high humid conditions so wait for a dryer day

I would say about one quart for starters. Unless you have a empty engine bal it is going to hard reaching everything.

Re: Where can I buy POR-15?

my car is a full resto project at the time so i am por-15 every thing, i talked with some body guys and they said that a gallon should allow me to cover all of the underhood, floor pans and wheel wells, i am also going to por 15 my roll cage and inside of the car, i guess i figure now that i have the car 100% stripped now would be the time to do it, i will post pictures of the under hood in a little bit, its not finished yet, still have to remove the master cylinder to get that part, i also want to mention that the black por 15 is glossy so i looks really good.

Buds auto body supply store in summit, i live in oak lawn so its like a 20 minute drive for me. out the door after taxes it was 151 something for a gallon. make sure you call ahead and make sure they have it, i called and they had it the next day for me to pick up

just on a side note buying three quarts of por 15 is more expensive than a gallon and two if you buy a gallon, and it dries up the trick is to put a screw through the top and side, that way when you want to use it, you pull the top screw to let air in, and the side screw to let it come out. it works try it
