Re: dealing with rust
Drako
Since I am very interested in this topic and know very little why exactly does an epoxy primer outperform POR-15. |

Re: dealing with rust
In this scenario epoxy primer outperforms POR-15 because it has excellent corrosion resistance and is a perfect base for top coats. POR-15 isn’t.
There is no reason the dash and roof can’t be properly prepped for epoxy and get sprayed at the same time as the rest of the truck. Would you prime your doors and fenders with POR-15? I don’t want to start a POR-15 debate, but I don’t have much use for the stuff. |

Re: dealing with rust
I was going to have the body sandblasted and then epoxy primed. I was going to Por-15 all of the other parts and and then spray them myself.

Re: dealing with rust
Yeah that sounds right. Use the single stage rust paint for stuff you aren’t topcoating.I did the same thing but used Chassis Saver instead of POR-15 on inner fenders, crossmember, differential, underside of hood and frame.

Re: dealing with rust
I've used rustoleum at work and some stuff around the house and it seems to hold up well.I don't see why it wouldn't work good for automotive use.
