Has anyone ever tried this product?
Made in Australia by KBS Coatings. "Supposedly" better than POR15?

Are these products actually stop rust?

Yes. I have used both.

I've used KBS and POR15 and I can't tell the difference except for the price. KBS is a lot cheaper and Australian owned. They stop rust by excluding air.

So, how do you use it?
Clean up a panel till it's bare metal, then cover with KBS or POR, then prep for paint?

Yeah, I read that bit...
I'm just not sure what happens next.
After the seal, the surface is prepped up for paint right?
But prepping involves sanding as well right?
Doesn't it remove the seal?
