Question & Answers ( Taken from a prior POR-15
Publication for info. only )
I’ve been using POR-15 Rust Preventive Paint for years. Can I
use ChassisCoat Black or BlackCote instead and get the same rust protection?
No. You can use ChassisCoat Black or BlackCote on bare steel and get rust
protection, but nothing like POR-15 Rust Preventive Paint, which
penetrates into the pores of the metal and chemically bonds with the
surface. Use ChassisCoat Black or BlackCoat over POR-15 to get the best
possible protection.
Come on now! I’ve put ChassisCoat Black and BlackCote on bare steel and have
gotten a terrific bond. It sure looks as good as a POR-15 coating on bare metal or steel. Isn’t it just possible you’re only trying to sell me
another can of paint?
Absolutely not! Side-by-side panels were tested under a variety of
conditions, and POR-15 was shown to be clearly superior in
preventing oxidation and corrosion. Try it yourself and you’ll see.
Though ChassisCoat Black and BlackCote will easily out-perform other coatings on
bare steel, it’s greatest value and best use is as a topcoat over
POR-15 Rust Preventive Paint. POR-15 doesn't classify it as a rust preventive
coating except in its use as a non-porous topcoat made to
keep moisture from penetrating through it.
How does ChassisCoat Black and BlackCote work over other painted surfaces?
Very, very well. There are many occasions when you want
corrosion protection over a painted surface where you can’t remove
the old paint. Just clean that surface with a water-based cleaner,
then topcoat with ChassisCoat Black or BlackCote.
Is ChassisCoat Black and BlackCote the “perfect” topcoat, or does it have drawbacks
I should know about?
Unfortunately, nothing is perfect in this world, not even ChassisCoat
Black or BlackCote! Like POR-15, it won’t come off your hands if you let it dry;
it will harden in the can if you leave the lid off and dip your brush
directly in the can; and finally,it is certainly not inexpensive. It’s very difficult to make, and the base
resins are very expensive, but POR-15 never let cost stop Them from
making the best coatings money can buy. ChassisCoat Black and BlackCote are one
of those coatings.
