Like Metalman says, rust never sleeps, I agree with all you guys say. My good friend who is a truck mechanic and paints his own fleet says por-15 sucks, it came off a frame he did in sheets once the rust got under it. He swears by Rustoleum, he paints his tankers with it and says he is impressed with the way it holds up. For me I prep and paint the best I can then when I'm all done I coat with oil. I don't mean cover your truck body. I squirt it down the doors, rocker panels,and all the places water could get that paint didn't. On some of my trucks I hose down the frame. Nothing rusts under oil, and I don't know about you guys but a little film of oil looks better to me than a spot of rust. Good luck to all. My 02.
