Some good folks on the SPI forum - I just don't do much more then lurk occasionally as I get too tied up here and one other site for my auto fix.

The SPI bed liner is supposed to be great stuff though I haven't used it. I did talk to Barry one time about it to use on my truck but didn't pull the trigger. As far as applying it - for sure use his gun. I did mine with 3-4 spray cans, Duplicolor, I believe, about 8 bucks or so each from Advance after I painted it but before assembly. Overspray is almost impossible to remove and of course I was able to find a couple holes where my masking off wasn't too well done. If I were to do it again, it would be before BC/CC paint, making sure that items like fender and panel flanges were not coated.

Again, lookin' good

Very cool Randy!! I'm trying to figure out where you're at now...once you finish spraying the epoxy do you have much left to do before spraying the color and final assembly?

Hey Robert, I wish I could say I'm about ready for paint but alas, I can't. I had all those body parts sand blasted a while back then did some preliminary pounding & welding before shooting the epoxy on them. At least now they are protected from rust, etc. I still have to skim coat them in some areas with filler then seal them with more epoxy after I get them blocked out. I still have to finish stripping the body, too and a whole bunch of other stuff.

How's your car coming along?
