You can buy a small can of POR-15..... that works better than Rustoleum in my opinion.

Anybody have EXPERIENCE with Natural Metal Powder Coat ...or for that matter a Natural Metal paint sprayed from a REAL gun, not the aerosol stuff, with ZERO life expectancy....

Looking to paint a gas or PC a gas tank that the galvanizng has bad areas.............

I couldn't find a code so I used the spray bombs over DP 90. The MC held up quite well to a brakefluid mishap.

Chuck,
I had a pair natural metal powder coated for my 67. I was VERY happy with the finished product.
