I was going to use POR 15 on the under carriage and inside on the floor to seal it. I was told I couldn't paint on top of POR 15. I will be painting inside the eng and trunk areas plus the doors. What are you using to clean the panels before paint?
This is the best anti-rust paint I have used: http://www.masterseriesct.com/
In is a moisture cured urethane like POR15, but adheres better and is easier to paint over. The only downside is it only comes in silver. Many are using it as a base primer instead of the first coat of epoxy primer.

Thanks a lot Trey. :P
I ordered one quart of Masterseries and one Chasis kit. I like the idea I can paint over this stuff. I will use it on the carriage and inside the cabin area. I think my car will be grayish blue gunmetal so the silver will look fine under the carpet and such.
Have you used this stuff with a spray gun? If so, did you use the primer gun?
Now all I have to do is get my epoxy primer and that will keep me busy for a while.

Yes, I think I had to thin it, but it sprays fine. I put the unused paint in small canning jars to keep it from getting hard, (don't tell my wife).
