Been there and done that, especially if it has been on for awhile... por15 may not be the best thing to use on metal, it locks in the rust and does not allow the metal to breathe. I say that after researching undercoat treatments for a vehicle I was looking to purchase... I learned quite a bit. Personally, I would not use por15 on rusted or blemished metal, and I have, and it is ugly... Just saying. Coraseal, yes.

Interesting that you mention this. My Dodge needs some TLC. With all the plowing it's done throughout it's life it's becoming a rust factory under there. Was considering light sanding then using a coroseal/por15 combo to clean up the frame and axle tubes. Guess I'll have to think about that one some more.
