Anyone used this stuff?

I was wondering how it dries if it comes out smooth if you brush it on.

Thought about using it to cover my new trunk floor area and underneath.

Or their floor armor product.

From my experience with it on rock crawlers, it wets out pretty decently, but I wouldn't call it smooth when applying by brush. Unless it's something that gets used in a lot in heavy weather or has some previous corrosion issue, I prefer to go the adhesion promoter and semigloss rattle can route. I'd liken the durability to that of a hammerite finish rattle can paint... ie: I wouldn't call it a wonder product by any means.

Here's some feedback on it...

It has nothing to do with rust or anything like that, I am just looking for the most durable scratch resistant stuff, it will be under carpet anyways, but I just want something to cover it and forget it.

It's great stuff. On my slow car I did the front suspension in the early '90's. Been through 10 or more engines, 2000 plus pass', and it still looks great. My stuff was brushed on & came out very smooth. The term cover & forget it, is perfect. Just make sure you do the prep exactly as they say. Good luck. My 2 cents.

I've used it many times over in restoration work. It flows out smooth when brushed on.

Cool thanks for the feed back, I think it will be great to cover the trunk floor and under the car where I added the new metal to keep it nice until I cut it out later and go 4 link and big tires

use a foam brush and it will probably smooth out better, I used one with the epoxy-urethane paint I painted my rollbar with, and it dried with almost no streaking at all. I'm gonna finish my 6 pt off into a 10 pt this winter and I wil be doing the new part/redoing the old part again, this time I will get 3 good coats on it and may get some 2000 grit sandpaper to try to get it to really bling nice

I first used POR 15 back around 1996 and it's good stuff. It goes on thin, so I was like WTF is this going to look good, but it dried nice. Looked decent and was pretty chip resistant, but it no herculiner if you want something that can take some abuse.

dont mean to hijak the thread but i was actually thinking for underneath the car of using line-x. its extremely durable for truck beadliners. what do you guys think?

A lot of people spray the car floors with that stuff, it's really hard and durable, but if it is a race car then it's a lot heavier than paint, but for a street car it really helps sound dampening, vibration and is pretty good for under the car.

The only thing I don't know is how well it does against heat where exhaust pipe might come close to it.

I would call and ask them the same questions.

por 15 is great stuff, durable, and long lasting, id say go for it and itll look great even brushed on, it kinda levels itself out like anyother paint, but if you want to add extra coats then you gotta keep at it while the paint is sticky before it dres, otherwise you gotta scuff it up, also wear gloves and a long sleeve shirt because that stuff doesnt come off!

If it is going to be a race car ever I wouldn't want to try to scrape off 20 pounds of hard *** bedliner coating LOL

I've tried POR15 and the similar product from Eastwood. POR15 works good but needs to be thinned 10% or so for best results. The Eastwood product is better IMO. It goes on easier, smooths better and seems to penetrate better. I'd check out the eastwood encapsulator, it will definitely be worth your time.

I had a girl help me paint some things inside my old car... she was wearing shorts and when she stood up, her *** and the back of her legs were BLACK. Apparently she found a wet spot to sit in.

I laughed so hard, she had no idea the stuff was so extreme. 3 days later at the beach, she was still sporting a black ***.

I've used both also and prefer POR 15. Esp for the OP purposes, he's using it more for a coating than a rust killer.
