POR-15 is good stuff with the proper prep, but it will need a top coat, as POR-15 is not UV stable. The black will go to a chalky gray over time, even on a frame that is not in direct sun light. I used the stuff on my '57 frame before I swapped it out and went to the Dodge frame.
For the Dodge frame, I used Eastwood's 2k chassis black, over their black primer. I sanded and blasted the frame, then sprayed it with Eastwood's Afterblast. The stuff seems to be pretty tough and no issues with UV. I'm saving the POR-15 for use where it will be out of sight or topcoated with another product.
One quart of primer and one quart of top coat is all you should need to paint the frame, with some of each left over.
