Haven't yet ... but I have heard good things about it. I plan to do all the raw cast parts on the bottom of the car at some point.

I have some at home but I haven't had a chance to do it yet. I have heard a lot of good comments about it but from what I have read on the container and their web site, you ahve to be careful with it. Once it is "painted" it is sealed for good. Have to be careful around bolts, etc.

The entire axle was first throughly cleaned with Simple Green, and for the touch spots Brake Parts Cleaner. Let completely dry.
Then I hand painted the assembly with an assortment of brushes. From 1" wide down to 1/8" wide for the fine details. I carefully painted around everything, sometimes I did better than others. If you goof Laquer Thinner takes it right off.
I just use POR15 semigloss black, two coats. One pint goes a VERY long way, I think I still have half a can left! It is shiney in the pics since it is not fully cured. Hope I answered all the questions. It took me about one entire day to do the spindles and rear axle. Recruit a freind it will go faster. I helped a buddy do his!
