are all rust preventers the same?
i went to vip to get some rust preventor stuff and there was lke 4 different
kinds. i first asked them if they had por 15, since ive heard a lot about
that here but they didnt. im not doing anythign too major, just the floor
pans of my tj are pretty rusty. does anyone have a preference over the paint
on kind of the spray type? and what do i use for a top coat if i use
something like plastikote rust preventor?
thanks,
nicole

Re: are all rust preventers the same?
You can buy POR-15 direct from the manufacturer at this site:
http://www.por15.com/default.asp
"Chassis Coat" is one of the recommended top coats.
I don't have long-term results using these products, having just painted my
rebuilt junkyard axles two weeks ago. Looks like an excellent product
though.

Re: are all rust preventers the same?
POR-15 has a good reputation here but it is designed to be used on rusted
surfaces, if you paint it over existing coatings it will seal from above
but can't bind to the metal below, so there's still a risk of bubbling and
rusting. If you are looking for protection over appearance, brush
painting is better than spraying because you'll build a thicker layer of
coating with a brush. POR and related products can be mailordered from at
least one of the Jeep-specific parts catalogues (I think it is in the 4WD
Hardware one). POR is expensive and has a short shelf-life once opened, I
recommend buying less than you think you need and then reordering just
enough to finish the job.
