POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating is a high performance coating designed to paint directly on prepped rusted or seasoned metal surfaces to stop rust permanently. POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating is non-porous and seals and protects many surfaces from water, chemicals, salt, and other corrosive contaminants and is able to be painted over rust. POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating is an effective anti-corrosive and rust preventive coating that offers superior chemical resistance due to its dense, cross-linked molecular composition and non-porous attributes.
I really didn’t know what to expect with this product from the description, but I ordered it as the manufacturer recommended its use prior to painting. Upon receiving it and reading the product composition and application instructions, I see that the chemistry involved is quite sound. It is a phosphate/zinc composition that forms an iron phosphate passivation layer on the metal and the zinc compound then provides (albeit thin) a galvanized surface layer. Worked very well when used as directed. It is important to keep the surface wet for 20 minutes as they direct so the chemical reactions can take place.
POR-15 Rust Remover will safely remove light to even heavy rust completely from metal surfaces and will not affect plastic, PVC, Viton, or most paints. One gallon derusts several hundred pounds of heavily rusted steel, this equates to around 1/2 to 3/4 pounds of dry rust removed per gallon. Rust Remover will not harm unrusted steel and is safe on other metals. Rust Remover has no fumes or bad odors and no VOCs. No sanding or scrubbing required. POR-15 Rust Remover works in as little as 20 minutes for light rust or overnight for heavy rusted metal. All of the rusted areas must be submerged in the Rust Remover for it to work. When all of the rust has been removed, rinse the metal pieces with water. POR-15 Rust Remover works in as little as 20 minutes for light rust or overnight for heavy rusted metal.

When the POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating is just dry to the touch, with slight finger-drag remaining, normally in the 2-5 hour range, it’s ready for the POR-15 Caliper Paint to be applied. Open the can of POR-15 Caliper Paint, stir thoroughly, and apply the first coat in thin but even strokes. When the first coat is dry (3 -4 hours), apply a second coat to achieve a beautiful ceramic-like finish. These products should only be handled when wearing latex gloves, eye protection, and NOSHA approved respirator. Always work in a well ventilated area.
Rust conversion products claim to change the chemical nature of rust and convert it to a more stable element that won’t rust again. History of the failure of these products is well documented; most simply don’t work for more than a few months at best, and they are subject to the same chipping and cracking that occurs with ordinary rust coatings. POR-15 works because it chemically bonds to rusted metal and forms a rock- hard, non-porous coating that won’t crack, chip, or peel. It keeps moisture away from metal with a coating that is strengthened by continued exposure to moisture. Discover even more information on https://por15.com/.
