    POR Metal Ready is a prep for rusty metal. I sand blasted my frame, let it
    sit outside for a month, sprayed it with Por Metal Ready and then painted it
    with POR 15. I haven't been able to scratch or scrape off the POR paint.
    Its really a tough paint. Too soon to tell how it will react if it ever
    does get nicked but no signs of any problems after 6 months and I've done my
    best to scrape/scratch it. POR sticks to the Rover almost as well as it
    stuck to me.

    Aloha
