Por-15 Question..., How much do I need? Options

[Grimstead]

Hello all, (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wavey.gif)

Well I have got my welding done and it is time to Por-15 the engine compartment & floorboards. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

My question is how do I need to buy to get the job done and are there any good deals out there? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) The few places I've looked all seam to be around the same price.

Also, can I use Por-15 on engine tin, or will it get too hot for that? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

Thanks! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif)

PS, I tried to do a search on 'Por 15' but the server keeps crapping out with all of the hits... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

If you clean out the edge of the can and use Saran Wrap between the can and the lid, you can get the stuff open after re-sealing. I bought a quart about 3 years ago and used 1/2 of it on the Corvette (drive shaft, etc.). Opened it this year and apart from the fact that there was about 1/4 inch hard crust on the top, the liquid beneath was still usable. Painted as much of Babydoll's rust as we could reach with it.
