There are better products IMO, such as a good quality two-part self-etching primer. I've used POR15 before and wouldn't bother again; in fact, in a pinch I'd use Rust-Oleum Rusty Metal primer and one of their top coats, with a hardener added, over POR15. Using a brush then a narrow, short nap roller can leave a good-looking finish if you don't want to be spraying. A trip to your local autobody/paint distributor (pro/wholesale business) is the best place to start.

As always, the preparation is by far the most important and time consuming step in the process.

No matter what you use, please apply it in a well-ventilated area AND wear a high-quality, rated respirator. The headaches and worse that can come from these products are genuinely dangerous, not to mention unpleasant.

Best of luck,
John
