POR-15...The Rust Solution !

Pulling apart my "LBC" (Little British Car) and seeing all that rust made me wonder how it can be prevented from happening in the future. One solution that collector cars guys have embraced is a product called "POR-15". This product is a moisture-cured coating that dries better in a damp environment, but once it's cured, provides a non-porous coating that keeps moisture away from metal permanently. It's not cheap and requires the proper preparation, but the end result is well worth it.
I "restored" a horse drawn cultivator in Sept of 2009 and used POR-15 for the first time...a good trial for my TR6 project.
Here are some pixs of the cultivator project.
