Alan,
I did and it did come with a plastic jar. However, I was disappointed
with using the product. It is a syphon feed sprayer which limits how long
the extension can be. I tried to make a longer rod to fit the length of the
chassis. The problem is that you really can't see what you've done. What
I've ended up doing on most of my Brick and my Spit, is either brushing the
POR on or trying to make some sort of swab and poring the POR in and swabbing
the area.
One small note, when I did the inside of spitfire sill plated, I'd removed
the plugs. So the POR started running out of the holes. I too some
masking tape and covered the holes. When the POR dried, I removed the tape
and cut the POR out of the holes with a knife.
