Especially if you are sandblasting first.

Myself and others have used the POR15 system and had great results from it. It is a lot of work but produces an extremely hard surface that will not allow rust to form. I've also heard a lot use epoxy primers. I never have so I can't answer anything to them. But those that have seem to be very happy with the results.

Having used all of the above, I am now a firm user of the POR-15. Quite frankly it costs less than the epoxy primers. There may be a downside or two, but the overall finish and protection is hard to beat. Not sure it is available overseas though.
