I wiped everything down several times with paint prep surface cleaner and started laying down POR15 with a foam brush. The frame took two coats with about an hour in between. Two hours after that it had tacked up enough to scuff. Then I sprayed two coats of rattle can satin black. I was pleasantly surprised with how smooth it turned out! The rear drums had already been rebuilt years ago so I hosed them down with brake clean, then sandblasted and painted the drums with black caliper paint. I didn’t have enough jack stands to support the rear end to paint it all at once, so I started with the backing plates and threw the wheels back on to finish the rest after they dried. Since the rear end would have a harder life than the frame I opted to leave POR15 as the final coat - and I’m glad I did! Today I do a full chassis wipe down after every few drives and with one wipe using a shop rag it looks brand new. Dirt and dust seem to stick to the frame a bit more.
