Seeing no one has answered for Melbourne.
I bought mine from S.A.Paint Supplies here in Adelaide.
Great stuff but make sure you follow the instructions.
Cheers

What would you reccomend instead Bigbaja??
I used a 2-pack epoxy mastic (rubberized) paint called barmastic.
Cost $80 for 4 litres paint and thinners
Seems to be pretty good, they use it for maintenance coating on bridges and oil rigs.

Yea I know, but its also a completely commercial paint (hence all the adds everywhere..) and is not used in industry.
IMO industrial standard usually = quality in my eyes.
Not to say it isnt what it claims to be.
I've seen on other forums numerous complaints with Por 15, but that could easily just be the users own fault.
For what it costs I would rather stay away from it..

Bamastic is the go for big areas (floorpan etc) as the prep is not as important but it is 2pack so is harder to use. It does not have a pretty a
finish either.
POR-15 is the go for small areas (suspension parts, brake parts, etc) as it is easier to use (doesn't require mixing so can use small volumes) but
harder to prep. Metal must be completely clean before applying POR15. But this is easy on smaller parts.
BigBaja - explain your prep work and it might explain why it didn't work for you.
Dasdubber had issues with POR15 but he used it over primer, a big nono.

POR is available by mail order from www.ppc.au.com. There are a few paint shops which sell it
in Vic and they are listed on the web site. I found it cheaper to buy it from PPC and pay postage.
I have used it quite extensively on small items. I painted my rear drums with silver POR15, overcoated with clear. After 12 months all that has
happened is that the colour has become slightly brown. I think this is due to a combination of applying the clear too thick plus UV exposure. They
do state that POR15 is UV sensitive and will change colour after a period of UV exposure. So far so good, I can only assume that the problems some
people have had are due to poor or incorrect prep.
Chewy, where did you buy the barmastic from?
Ain't nothin' like the wind in your hair.

Wow! I did Andy's drums with VHT high temp brake stuff (on new clean drums) and they went black within the first 100km!! I painted them red.

sorry for the wait but i used it as per can
sand blasted primered
then applied same afternoon
put it on stands and jacked it up a few times
even dropped my car keys on there once (there is only 4 keys on my keyring ) and it has scratches all over it .
bit of brake fluid was spilt on it and it all bubbled up as well.
for some thing that is supposed to be hammer tough which is the sole reason for putting it on my baja pan in the first place.
and i would recomend powder coating it then a clearcote if you were worried about it being porus

Not everyone thinks it is great....my last pan was por 15 and it rusted to bits in less than 3 years.Everything was done correctly.I used Barmastic on
my new pan,and like everything else it doesn't like premium unleaded left on it for long periods of time...it bubbled and lifted. Apart from that i
would be happy use it again. Hardly any prep work and sticks like shit to a blanket.:jesus
