Can be a Nice product, but poor instructions & support
Review for POR-15 Chassis Black Paint I recently used POR-15 Chassis Black and initially encountered a major issue—an overly glossy, uneven finish that didn’t match the intended satin black look. After reaching out to POR-15’s support team and receiving a dismissive response, I decided to investigate further. Through research, I discovered that the high solids content in POR-15 settles into a dense, hardened layer at the bottom of the can over time. This is not obvious at first glance, and even routine stirring may not be enough to properly mix the paint. Only after spending 10+ minutes vigorously stirring and breaking up the sediment did the paint apply correctly, leveling out to the proper satin finish. Issues With POR-15’s Instructions & Support 1. No warning on the can about the extreme settling of pigments or the need for thorough stirring beyond the usual. 2. Customer support failed to acknowledge the issue, despite photos clearly showing an incorrect finish. 3. Wasted time and effort—I had to completely redo the job after initially applying improperly mixed paint. Final Thoughts POR-15 can be a great product when applied correctly, but the lack of proper instructions leads to unnecessary frustration and rework. Had their label clearly stated this issue, I and many others could have avoided a poor application and wasted labor. Until POR-15 updates their instructions and customer service approach, I cannot fully recommend this product to others. Be prepared to stir aggressively for an extended period or risk a subpar finish. ⭐ Rating: 2/5 – Good product when mixed properly, but poor instructions and customer
