[DML] Re: Started my frame-off restoration!

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

POR15 is good for 700 degrees (no way to tell about outgassing), but I'll bet you can't powdercoat over it. They even warn you that regular rattle-can spray paint won't stick to it once it fully cures. It's VERY slippery stuff. 

I've used it on brake calipers and engine blocks - very good in those 
applications as well as the normal metal refinishing.
