If Conrad is talking specifically about POR-15, I was under the impression that it was only a primer or a paint for areas you weren't gonna be looking at all the time. I don't know if POR makes a topcoat stuff that holds up like the POR-15 is supposed to.
I personally hate the signal orange 914s, and like my light-blue one. (It takes all kinds, don't it?)
I have two real favorite colors for a 914, though. One is "Alaska Blue Metallic", which is a very rich-looking deep metallic blue. The other is silver. Ya see, silver (originally white, actually) is the German national racing color (like Italian red), and I think that the Germans for quite a while designed cars that looked their best in silver.
But that's just one more opinion for ya. Paint the car whatever color you really like.
