View Full Version : Where can I buy POR-15 asap?
ok I need to find a place, preferably in northern NJ that sells POR-15, i just need the basic rust-preventive paint, no top coat or special colors needed, plain black will do. I need it by saturday so i can finish the firewall in my bronco before the new windshield gets installed on monday(i dont want to have to paint after then) I was wondering if any body shop suppliers around here would carry it, i assume so, but i dont know any. POR-15 is made in morristown but i dont think they have a retail store there. Also if anyone happens to have some, ill buy it, lol. I need 2 quarts only, I just cant wait to have it shipped.
i know this could have be put in the appearence or chassis section, but i figured it would get seen more here since i'm sorta in a rush.

Seriously you may be able to get POR-15 at Home Depot.

you may be right, it is for concrete and wood too, ill check there and lowes tomorrow if none of the shops i call have it. Â*
See, I need POR since in the fire, almost all of the paint came off the firewall and all the seams have been exposed since may, and surface rust is starting a little, and with all the nooks and crannies, and down in the wiper valley, id never be able to sand out all of it, so POR would be perfect to prevent it coming back. Then i'm going to top coat it with regular spray paint just to protect it from UV rays, even though being a firewall most of it will never be seen.

It may look like a lot of work, but its not too bad.

Check out the website......POR is made right in north Jersey.....my father used to drive up there to pick it up right from the manufacturer.

Paul, the one time I used it, I picked it up directly from them. It was about a 40 minute drive or so, and very easy to find. Right off 287 IIRC. Give them a ring and tell them your situation, I'm sure they'd be willing to help you out.
I just got off the phone with them. Very nice and helpful, I'm running over there in like 2 hours to buy a few quarts. I looked at their website last night and saw that they were in morristown but i wasnt sure it they were just a factory and warehouse or if they actually did sell to the public there. Now i'll be able to have the firewall ready by monday and then i can get a lot more done right away. I wanna try to get this bronco on the road in less than 3 weeks total.
