hi all i was just wondering where i can purchase por 15 from i have been to repco and a few paint shops and peps and burson and none of them have heard of it .i live in the sydney area. would it also be possible if you could give me a rough guide of applying the por 15 to subframes that have been taken back to bear metal.

Yeah it is a bit hard to track down.
If the subframes are bare metal I'd suggest wipe them down with thinners or some grease and stain remover then simply just paint it on, you can brush it or spray it. I wouldn't worry about the metal ready or any of their associated cleaning/prep products IMO they don't work as well as they claim.

I have mentioned this before, but the KBS system is exactly the same as POR15, is Australian made, and is CHEAPER. I've used both and can't tell the difference.
