How can I stop rust on frame

Post by Sharps-Nut »

I have a rusty frame I was wanting to preserve/ stop rust. It has pretty bad surface rust with some heavy pittting in places. I would like to know if there is something I could spray on it to stop the active rust then paint frame?

Yep...POR15 is the way to go.Comes in Flat Black and Gloss Black(and silver).If ya want another color ya gotta paint over the POR15 before it dries.Good luck.By the by....don't get any on your skin cause it'll be there for awhile.

I do too just the plain old spray can you may have to touch it up every once in a while but if it isnt a show truck .....it get the job done.

I do it on my 1992 not my 1972<----she is powdercoated. :D

(You may have already done this but...) The easiest way to find it is por15.com The catalog is free and it doesn't take too long to have it shipped to you.

It is tempting to go through ebay instead in some ways.
