Tim,
I used the GLOSS black POR-15 on my chassis and eng. bay. Have you read
the FAQ I wrote about POR-15? You will have to top coat at least the eng.
bay as the UV will change the color of the POR.
I believe that the black in the eng. bay is supposed to be a satin or
flat black.
John
All,
There is a version of POR 15 that is UV resistant and does not require top
coating. I use it on bumpers and it holds up real well.
