I sprayed my 50 frame after getting it back from the sandblaster. I've used a lot of POR 15 over the past few years. Does a good job with the brush, but also sprays great. After blasting,the metal has a grainy surface which will give the paint purchase, or something to grab to. Takes about 1 1/2 qt. to get a good coat on a frame. Clean your spray gun with laquer thinner, but dont wait long. If it sets up, may as well throw it away. Took 2 saw horses out in the vacant lot next to my shop to set the frame on. Be careful with overspray. The stuff won't come off once its set. I always punch a hole in the top of the can, and another one on the side at the top. Put a 3/8 coarse thread sheet metal screw in the holes after pouring out what you want, and keep it in the frig. Stuff will keep a long time if you seal it back quickly. This stuff sets up not by air, but by moisture. The higher the humidity, the faster the stuff cures. I learned all these tidbits from a POR 15 factory rep. that I knew. This stuff really works. Just be very careful with it cause if it gets on something it wont come off. Even your hands. I always wear latex gloves. Good luck Bob
