 frank, you live in Ontario.  where they dump more road salt on the roads
than here..and most other places :<)   i have seen late 90's cars from ontario
with rust holes in them..something you'd never see around here..
 'nuff said :<)

as for the POR-15..  im sorry, POR 15 is not "all that". i have used this
stuff as far back as 15 years ago before most people even knew it existed, and it
aint god. i have a friend who used to work there (its made in Morristown NJ
near here) and he could get me it at cost.. its an epoxy based, but it will
flake, bubble, peel just like any other paint or coating.   i painted a floorpan
with it and had it rust thru anyway..  its a decent coating, but it wont
really protect better than a few good heavy coats of rustoleum..  this is from long
time experience with the product.
