Hi All,

Just to let you know I have used POR-15 alot of times.
You can use it anywere! I have great luck using it on
the battery support area in my FC and have not seen
any battery acid attack the por-15 at all. I also have
a plastic cover as well as a drip hose exiting outside
as well. The only thing!! That I have had a problem
with it is getting the stuff off!!! It doesn't!! So if
you are going to spray I caution you to were old
cloths or cover alls that you are going to throw
away!!! I cant stress this any more highly!!!. But
they make an excellent product!! I am not a sales man
for them, and I have only used the black color, but if
the paint works well as I know I believe that the
other products should be good as well.
