Hi,

I am getting close to finishing up my rustoration on the passenger side of the car and I have looked over lots of other rustoration threads on the forum and have not been able to come up with a clear idea of the order I should apply my protective stuff.

Should I…

Option #1 – Apply Seam Sealer, POR-15, POR-15 Topcoat and then primer for Paint

*** -- or -- ***

Option #2 – Apply POR-15, Seam Sealer, POR-15 Topcoat and then primer for Paint

Any other opinions appreciated!

Thanks,
Larouex

To add to the comments above, the POR 15 is really thin, and does a great job of flowing into small nooks and crannies. I asked the POR folks, and they said to use the POR 15 first to take advantage of this wicking capability. I had seam sealer applied directly to areas of POR 15 that I didn't plan to paint over, and it adhered very well. Otherwise, the above comments about POR 15 being hard to paint over unless it is properly scuffed and primed are correct. It is a very hard paint, and is very hard to scuff for topcoating. It is a good treatment for areas that cannot be completely de-rusted. Epoxy is good for areas that you can get to to completely clean, and are going to paint over. JoeO
