So.... POR 15 metal ready sucks at preventing flash rust. Even in a garage that is ok at sealing.

Spraying a two part epoxy primer is out, and my pans are going to be bare metal for a while since I have to remove the cross brace in the pan and the center tunnel to attack the rust in there. Is epoxy primer available in cans?

I need to prevent the metal from flashing and rusting agian while this is done so I can do it all with por 15 excepting the area where the brace/center tunnel mates with the pan, which of course will be weld through primer.



Also any reccomendations on a good weld through primer? U-pol I hear is the best and worth every penny vs 3m or the others?


Thoughts?

lowes has a degreaser rust inhibitor(sp) just wipe the car down.. Mine has been bare metal for a long time...first the soda blast helpped then I sanded down the flash rust and used it..any time I handle the car (touch it) just re wipe it.. from Crown...

Got some better stuff from the paint store once I get serious..
