Dom16 vs Por15

[Bob Carriere]

My OD paint crackled so bad I had to sand and use the POR bluetie coat primer let it dry than OD green.

The glossy coat of the POR 15 once coated with the Tie Coat blue sandable primer will allow you to use any top coat....... if the surface is scratched hard enough everything but the base POR gloss will be removed....... but can be spot painted with the Tie Coat and OD again...... I actually scratched the axle tubes with chains...... POR was never damaged.

I would seriously consider using the new two part epoxy primers.....but have yet to use it!!!!!!

Ordering from the States may be the best option.

Who is the National distributor????? in Montreal?????

I've had the crackle happen before. It's from the POR still shrinking a bit as it cures. However I find the top coat is almost fused to it once dry.

The POR Canada website only has a place in Quebec listed. They used to have a list of dealers. That's all gone.

I've used this stuff in small amounts; http://www.magnetpaints.com/underbody.asp

You can buy it at Carquest and other places in Canada (listed on their site), it's about the same price as POR15 and essentially the same stuff as far as I remember from the last time I used POR15.

I still get POR15 from Cdn tire. The price has gone up to $64.99 a quart which I suspect reflects our crappy Cdn peso. I note that on the US site, a quart is $52.52 which translates into $70.97.

Personally I go to the US border several times a year for parts, so if the Cdn system does go to heck, I'll go that route.

Well I ordered some tie coat primer and thinner from the POR Canada site. Other then a few issues on checkout. (seems they really want you to use Paypal) everything went well.

Ordered Sunday night and the shipping van just left my driveway.
