POR15 can be sprayed just fine. I've done it many
times. You do need good ventilation and good respiratory equipment because it
does contain cyanoacrylates. They also advise you use their thinner which I
do.
I've also used Eastwoods Rust Encapsolator
(successor to Corroless) and don't feel it's near as durable and if you buy
it in the spray can and don't use it all at once it has a tendency to clog the
nozzle.

POR 15 does not need a top coat can not be sprayed. Use foam
brushes and throw away. I have used both and the Eastwood products need more
prep to look good if you won't see the end result but want protection go with
POR 15.

Thanks Eddie. I was looking at
the Devilbiss (sp?) spray guns because they say that you can spray upside
down with their gravity feed guns as long as you use the cup liner. I would
imagine that being able to spray upside down is important when doing an
undercarriage. Is there a reason that most people seem to use gravity feed
rather than suction feed? Do you get a more uniform flow of paint or is it a
price issue?
I also read that you get what
you pay for with these guns, and if you want to do good quality exterior
paint work, don't buy any gun under $200, but if you are just doing
undercarriage and/or industrial surfaces, guns around $100 are fine.

Yes, eastwood has what
you need. Im doing the frame and the underside now. They have spray cans in
everthing. But I prefer the sraygun. Goodluck Eddie Bumgarner 66ss conv.

I am going to be pulling the fuel tank
out of the '70 this weekend, and as
much as possible I want to clean up
the underside and paint it with
corroseal as I work on the car.
Corroseal is a primer that turns rust into
magnetite. It is similar to
POR-15 but it's water based and non-toxic (and
it can be sprayed). Do you
guys have any recommendation for a topcoat? I
don't have spray
equipment, so something that would flow nicely from a brush
would be
ideal. Otherwise I do have a compressor and I could buy a
spray
gun...
Thanks
