I've used on my 72 Microbus, on the inside of the chrome bumper bars and bumper bar brackets and engine bar etc
I've also use Por15 on my SC ute for the areas as above . 
In my opinion I prefer the KBS over Por15 main reason is what I see as an end result in the top coat over a long period of time.
All the prep systems for both are what I can tell are very similar and couldn't tell the difference and if the instructions are followed well, your get good results.
Main Difference I can tell is like mentioned is in the top coats. I went for a top coat as for longevity in the UV factor of the product. As the rust paint isn't UV stable.
With KBS I noticed that the gloss level remains the same over time and once dirty a clean of components makes it look shiny again. Where Por15 gloss level hasn't been maintained at a glossy level and it to me remains looking like a dirty look, as if you haven't washed it. Don't know if that's the best way to explain it. It's also like dirt has embedded itself into the surface of the paint and needs washing with water to remove the contaminates,  
The other thing is in some colours of Por15 has no body in the paint and you need several coats to cover what's underneath it.
