Since the area I did has never been exposed to sunlight, it has held up very well.
You didn't have to get everything scrupulously clean, just get all of the loose stuff off. I realize this is not a recommended restoration technique, but I didn't know any better then and it has held up well.

That's it. Por-15 is what my friend used on the underside of his vintage 60's Camaro. It looks great. I plan to try it. Some others I looked at Corro Seal, Rust Converter, and quick glow. The quick glow was especially intriguing. It says it cleans the rust off of chrome. I ordered a can. I'll let you guys know how it works.
