Title: Por15
Post by: captainbizzaro on March 12, 2011, 10:11:00 AM
About to order some POR15-I see Frost.co.uk do a 473ml for £22+postage. How far does this stuff go as I just want to do the rear aches and underside while the fuel tank is out. Will that be enough?

yeah, that\'s all you\'ll need Tim. When I bought my 1st tin, I thought \'bloody hell, is that it for 20 quid?\' but this stuff goes for miles and miles. A small tin will do the rear end no problem, I did the rear floor pan, nsr arch and all my suspension parts out of a 473ml tin!

Likewise, as I said earlier, I\'ve used 5 of the 110ml tins to do all the under boy including arches up to the rear of the doors and all of the suspension components.

The 6 little tins does work out well for reducing the risk of it setting in he tin and wasting  half of it :)

I\'ll second all the previous comments Tim.  I too bought this very item and haven\'t used 1/2 tin yet with neasrly all the rear end treated 1st coat.

Was just looking at this stuff as there a few people using it recently - is it basically like hammerite (although the website says this por 15 wont chip??)

It sounds a lot more than that Ricco. Strikes me the space shuttles should have had this stuff on \'em.

It looks indestructible from the pics and peoples write-ups.
