On the lids sticking....two solutions.....one use a plastic spacer..... half of a sandwich bag....... second consider decanting the full can in two 500ml mason jars...... and use a plastic bag to keep the jar ring from glueing on the glass. The POR has a tendency to harden if too much air is trapped inside the can...... decanting in smaller jars prevents that situation.
I use "gun clean" or regular gasoline to clean the guns...... and boxes of blue nitrile disposable gloves.... also use disposable cheap paint brushes.
Happy coating....as technically POR is not a paint.

While pitting is not that much of a problem in this part of the country as it is out East, I still may give the tie coat a try, depending on the long term results of my current system.
Unfortunately Canadian tire does not carry the top coat yet so I would have to pick it up at Rondex in Winnipeg. I find their stock of POR-15 products s somewhat hit and miss.
