Rumor has it that the stuff can be bought at Advance auto, but I havnt been to my local one yet to see.
Since alot of you guys are talking about doing you interior floors the POR 15 would be best but it is expensive. Im going to be using this stuff on the Exterior of my Dodge when I get around to it. Its a polyeurethane Coating Like the Line X and Rhino Lining Bed Liner stuff and is relatively cheaper. It can also be sprayed or brushed on. If anything it would be a great sound deadner.

If you guys go to the main screen of the site, click on the bright yellow "EASTWOOD" button. They sell their own brand of epoxy based paint that supposedly works better than POR-15. A couple local hotrod builders I know swear by the stuff, they say it goes on even smoother. They call it Eastwood "rust encapsulator" and it is available in black, gray, red, or clear.
I ordered some to test on a brake booster for my Chevelle.

somebody got carried away lol. It doesnt look bad by any means, jus not my cup of tea. Got any more pics??
I should have may cage and underbody painted up in a week or two with por 15 as soon as my car gets back from the chassis shop. So ill post pics after I go to town with my angle grinder and wire wheel. Im prolly gona do the lower half of my engine bay as well. ie the frame rails and such.

It's hard to maintain honestly... it gets dirty really fast and needs cleaning to stay looking good. I'm going to be switchin over to lightwight carpet soon.

I shot my bar with acrylic lacquer the restoration parts company I work for gets mixed to match interior colors. It chips if I'm not careful, but it blends better with the interior (dark green) versus a standard black job. Check out my fquick site for pics.
My floors inside and out will get POR 15 once the car is painted shortly. That stuff works great. I used some on a brake master cylinder, and even brake fluid didn't chip, strip or discolor the finish. A small can does go a long way.

I went to advance auto today, no por15
aslo oriely's, no por15
also napa, no por15.
I just wish I could get it local so that I can get the amount I need without shipping cost if I need more.
I have seen it on ebay.
I have been thinking about painting my trailor with it also

They make some Hi Temp stuff specifically for engine components in the same color and finishes.
