A similar product to POR15 is RUST BULLET. It brushes on, or thinned down, can be sprayed on. Other than a clean surface, no other prep is neccessary.
This product is running $50 a quart, but that is enough to do a LOT of painting!
Like POR15, the finish is smooth and very hard and slick. I've had no problems spraying engine enamel right onto the virgin surface of the Rust Bullet, although it might turn out that the finish coat would stay longer if you rough up the base coat.
I use FORD RED engine enamel. It holds up well under hard conditions (like heat) and I can get a fresh rattle can any time.
The top half of my engine looks great. I'll be working on the bottom of the car when I finally (at long last) get space in the garage where I can put the car up on jack stands.
I recall the Volvo Red engine paint, but unless you put a sample mext to the Ford paint I don't think you can tell the difference. I use the stuff that they sell as matching body paint, etc. I can't recall the name of the company at the moment, but you'll find a rack of the stuff in any auto parts store.
