feedback on some rust paint

i need some help on trying to make a decision on these rust paints. miracle paint, por-15, rustbullet, etc. has anyone used these sucessfully in a restoration/repair project and would share opinions one these. i have the general idea on using these but i would like to know if they actually work in real life and not just on paper.

POR 15 works but not the greatest in the world.. I prefer Eastwoods Rust Encapuslator. It doesnt require the extensive prep that POR 15 does, and you can easily pant over it. Ive used it on my frame, inside parts of the body (cab corners door pilars, etc etc)

Ive used POR 15 in the past, it has a tendancy to come off, fade if exposed to the sun, and has a tendancy to cause solvent pops, fisheyes, and lifting, if painted overtop of.
