I thought they were on-line only.

POR-15 is available at Painter's Supply and Bronco Hut.

i got it through summit racing. Not sure on local sales. I would call the painter's supply store off Sante fe. They have a huge selection.

Can any of you that have actually used it offer an opinion on how durable it is? Not web opinion...actual use opinion. I like the coloring better than por

I have used it and love it. My whole frame is covered with it and and parts of the interior. It is super durable! I have scraped sharp metal against it and you can't even tell. It's hard scratch and won't peel as long as you prep it right. I have nothing bad to say about the stuff.

I used it and highly recommend it. I used the silver as a base then topcoated it with the BlackCoat.

If you order it directly from http://www.rustbullet.com it's a bit cheaper than summit from what I remember.

I used a paint brush for all of this.....

Can the Rustbullet or POR-15 be painted over once they're set? Started rebuilding my doors and the factory sound deadener has fallen off and there's some surface rust on the inside. I'd like to get something on it to stop any further rusting possible.

Yes, you can paint over it just fine. You actually want to paint over POR15 as it will fade in sun, unlike RustBullet that doesn't.

See #7.....

How much did you need to do your tub?

It depends on how many coats you are going to do. RustBullet suggests multiple applications of the silver to buildup the layers. I slathered it on with a brush so I only did one coat of the Silver. I think I used 1 quart of silver and 1 quart of black, but can't remember for sure.
