Thoughts on POR-15 Metal Prep before Epoxy

all,

what are your thoughts on the POR-15 Metal Prep product? i am working on a 914 and was using POR-15 paint in some areas and was using the POR-15 metal prep. i was pretty impressed with the way it left some of the bare metal. it left a grayish color that didnt flash rust right away. Also, i didnt let it dry out like Ospho and there was no funky mess or ashy powder.

in any event, i think its laying down a zinc phosphate layer...probably pretty thin, but enough to give a limited amount of flash rust protection until you can get some epoxy on there.

anybody use this product for regular paint? seems like a better alternative to Ospho IMHO.
