[Roadsters] Eastwood's rust encapsulator

[Eric Hoffman]

I have used the Eastwood product and it did beat rust down.  It is called for
in applications where the rust cannot be removed.  I feel better grinding the
rust down as completely as possible first and using the POR15 system. 
Following the steps carefully is very time consuming but once I did skip the
chemical wash and etching steps (the kit used to come without these items) and
the rust did return.
 
It is very helpful to have a coffee ladel and heat gun when using POR15.  The
ladel is because you don't want any of the paint that you remove to return to
the container.  The heat gun because after the rinsing and etching the metal
must be completely dry.  If you get any of the POR15 paint on your hands it is
a two week tattoo.  So use gloves.
 
Here's the POR15 website www.por15.com
 
Hope that helps,
 
Eric Hoffman
