I don't care if you use POR-15, epoxy primer, whatever, but each side is coated. Now, this is where I may be off, since the rust is sealed from oxygen, how is it able to continue rusting?

I have had the same poor results with poo15. I had a brochure from a car show that makes this stuff look like the ultimate do-all end-all frame paint. So, when I restored my frame, that is what I bought. Best analogy I can think of is putting a waterproof, impermeable bandage over an infected cut. Looks good from the outside but who knows what's going on underneath. In 2016, the wood flooring side of the business was sold, along with the Absolute Coatings brand name.
