lucifer (not at all in an offensive way, i just cant think of your name),
my impressions tell me that por15 is paint with hardener in it
very hard wearing, shiny, like enamel/glass.

the spray on stuff is tar, very tough, flexible, rubbery.

normally, the stuff you put on the underside of the body is usually stuff that is tough, rubbery to resist stone chips, and in your case, will absorb vibration and act as a sound deadener.

using POR15 for the underside will make it very attractive, however not be very practical

dont forget you still need somthing under the underbody spray, like an etch primer, dont spray it straight on metal, as if it does crack, moisture gets under it. and, most of them you can paint over again with whatever you like.

POR-15 is very elastic, it is not just hard paint. It also has much better adhesion to steel than any etch primer.

They used to have a picture on the web site of it painted to a small strip of sheet steel. The strip was trwisted around with no adverse affects on the POR-15.

Some test results here:

That said, I have just gone for rust preventative underbody spray on my mini. In some places it is over rust gaurd paint, in other bare steel. I think the rust preventative one have some fish oil in the mix.

I don't think you will want to paint over the underbody spray. It's under the car. It seals. It's flexible. You don't see it.

ive just done my engine bay, i went etch primer, spray on underseal, primer, paint. this worked well, but i cant comment on how well it lasts, i did the same to my sills and valances a year ago and they are still good, and its been thrashed along a gravell road...alot.
