Done, check my post above. What's nice is that if you happen to scuff a spot for some reason, you can mix up a small 1 oz batch for any touch ups. I mixed a small amount so that i can coat the deep tight gaps on the inner side of the bumper with a long skinny paint brush

Nice thanks. How does it do with mud and road dirt? Easy to clean with just a pressure washer or take some scrubbing?

I would recommend doing a test spray on a piece of wood or something because that stuff is definitely different than using spray paint!

I would agree on using rattlecan on things like bumpers and rockrails. Tub and exterior, definitely the Monster/Raptor liner route
I was also thinking about using the rustoluem on my hinges, do you have any pics?
also, do you have any issues with the liner chipping off the hinges?

If you want close up pics I'll have to post em tomorrow in the light. I have a few very small spots of orange showing thru on the very top of the body hinge from taking doors on and off and missing the hole lol. But in no way is it chipping at all.

Do you have any pics? I actually just bought a can of this for my rock rails. I have seen it on small stuff like side steps and bumpers, but I am curious how it looks spread out over a large area.

Close up pics would be great... Trying to decide what to do with the hinges... She's in the body shop now for some touch up work but they are reluctant to bedline the hinges... They keep telling me it will chip off... I just think they don't want to do it. That's why I was wondering about the rattle can liner

I'd say it's probably just a PITA for them to do such a small area. I would 100% just use rattle can for hinges. For a $9 can of liner, you could redo a pair of hinges for year lol. Leaving work now, post a pic shortly!
