Has anyone used this product ? does it look like bare metal ?? was considering using on my gas tank that needs to be blasted to get surface rust off and old paint so no hope off bringing back to shiny metal look without painting it with something.

I bought some but haven't tried it. I will be interested in your replies. Saw it on the display the guy had and it looked good.

Did the display show it as a grey color or more like shiny new metal of sau a gas tank?

IT WAS KIND OF A CAST COLOR. Like if you strip down you steering gear to metal It was not shiny

Hey Guys...I used this stuff on most of my front end components. Tierods, idler arm and steering knuckles. I was real pleased with the way it turned out. On my site I have a pic of the front end and you can see for yourself. I had a hard time keeping up with which one I had painted and which i had not. Just FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS and use the lighrest, thinnest coat you can and do multiple coats. The claipers are still raw cast so you can compare the look.

I did mine front and rear suspension with it but...

I used regular POR15 first then coated with Metal Mask. Look at the website in my sig under the "Eve's Bones" page to see. It came out decent but it wasn't easy to get the coverage over the black POR.

Never had any problems with any POR-15 product(s)!

If they say it does what it does, "It Does What It Does!".

"Nuff Said!"

Hope this helps.
