Re: Using POR-15....
 

Doesn't POR have a 3 (or 4) step treatment
(http://www.por15.com/product.asp?productid=301)?
1. degrease http://www.por15.com/product.asp?productid=156
2. treat with some chemical so por-15 will stick
http://www.por15.com/product.asp?productid=177
3. POR-15 http://www.por15.com/product.asp?productid=6
4. overcoat to protect from UV if necessary (probably don't need this for a
frame unless you roll the jeep a lot)
