The POR15 people are not lying when they tell you that you MUST follow all the prep steps. If you don't, the product will not work as advertised. Period. Don't buy POR15 unless you are willing to follow all the prep steps. The prep work sucks and it is a PITA to work with but I have had great results with POR15. I have even done a test leaving a patch of POR uncovered for a few years in sunlight and it does turn to a flat chalky black but is still super hard.

If you put POR15 onto existing paint it will peel right off once dried. It must be on bare metal, that has been prepped per their instructions. Lastly, when working with POR15 it is imperative you do not get any water mixed with your POR15. One drop of sweat into your POR15 and you need to throw it out.
