Be cautious using POR 15, some users have experienced issues with moisture getting underneath it and rusting starting totally un-noticed beneath the hard top coat, there's some posts on here somewhere about it.

I did read some of them, but mine is now a garage queen and only out in the sun so I wasn't concerned. To be honest everything I was looking at putting on it had negative reviews about something or other, it all becomes a rabbit hole to me =))

I built a Marlin Cabrio kit car that came “factory powder coated” - it started flaking off before I had the suspension all bolted on!
I then had to strip all of it off down to bare metal before using the complete POR 15 treatment - de-rust, surface cleaner, primer, undercoat, top coat and finally sun coat.
15 years later it still looks good as new.
I certainly rate POR15 if applied as per instructions.
PS
I’m a typical male and don’t even read instructions usually😂 - but pleased I did tow the line with this one.
