I did por 15, holds up well. One thing i don't like is the shiny finish. Maybe i left out a step though.

They make a satin finish too, found out the hard way when I bought another can and touched up some areas on my frame. May be a little harder to find but it's out there.

I will not use POR again.

On the cheap, Rustoleum or tractor supply paint. Best is epoxy.

So you're down on the POR-15 (back to back post not liking it).....care to tell us why? I've used it a few times with good results(Bronco and 69 Mach 1). Not calling you out just want to know so I can be an informed bronco Bro......I'm all about a better way.... :)

I've used POR15 to treat the inside of motorcycle gas tanks before. I know not quite the same but... Some people really like the stuff and many people report issues with it peeling or whatever. The key to using it is to do proper prep work and make sure the area is as clean as possible and no grease, oil or fuel on the surface. Take your time and doing it right the first time and you should be happy with the results.
