I've used POR 15 as a rust stopper on Klaus, and it's holding well on the
areas that I treated properly. If you notice a hunk of rust when you're on
the last step and slap the "paint" on it, it's a waste of time, but I've
been very impressed with the product. I even treated that nasty battery
tray rot with good results. This would be 2 years after treatment, it looks
exactly the same. I've got no experience with body filler, unless you count
what I've been slapping on dented drywall, still detailing my house it
seems. 

I know Mark F has something he likes better, Picklex I think. I'm sure
he'll chime in.
