Well done Chris! Much respect. You kicked that project out pretty fast and did a great job in the process.

Looks Really good Chris,  Been thinking about that gator stuff instead of undercoating for the bottom of my barracuda. 
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

Yea we have talked about that. His daughter has a large garage, if I was him I would store it in there until spring. Or at least until the snow goes away. I know it isn't staying in mine, I don't have room for it, and I have another truck coming in right after this one.

The stuff dries nice and solid. In person, it looks really good where I painted over it. It is kind of tricky to spray, you really have to thin the crap out of it to get it through the gun. The can is like tar, and you have to scrape it out into a bucket, add the catalyst. Stir it for what seems like forever, when it is all mixed, put the thinner to it. Gives a really nice finish.

To do the whole job, I can't count that high  :smilielol: I drank about 2 beers before I sprayed it. I have real shakey hands, if I drink 2 to 3 beers my hands are calm as can be.
