I used Eastwood's ceramic chassis black.  Turned out very good.  Seems like it will be durable.

POR15 or Chassis saver works good. I like satin black better than gloss black though personally.

will POR15 stick to areas that arent rusty but were ground down with a grinder? I have some parts(mostly from the cab forward) that wasnt rusty but I had to grind the undercoating off.

My vote is for Por-15 or Kbs coatings make a product called blacktop chassis paint. I have used both with great results.

yes it will work, i think its meant to be applied to light rust so it bonds better.
