    that sounds like another job for the Dawn quick power dissolver remember the warning do not get on paint well it works great with paint on skin because the paint really hasnt curred or anything. take it from a guy who wants results and doesn't mask festiva half the time

    Haha. No bashing intended. I was asking because I've seen the roll on last a good bit longer than the spray. Unless its done professionally

    Pics to come after I paint the front bumper. Also learned not to paint big things in the cold, the paint will run like a mofo, luckily the runs are not to bad, was mostly able to hide them with another coat over top.

    I Also ruined my jacket, and possibly a pair of pants. I didn't realize how messy that truck bed coating is. Also I am going to be showing up to thanksgiving dinner with allot of it on my hands because I can't get it out.
    Did you roll it on? Or spray?
    Nastiness is expected with any paint type product.

    Wear the gloves you were supposed to wear for painting, to Thanksgiving dinner. That way they won't see your hands. Buy a mechanic's worksuit on eBay like me.

    Installed a set of Moog Aspire tie rod ends.
    Normally $48 each. I got two for a whole lot less.

    Nah, I will have to do that. Luckily I have new hose clamps on there, so it would be a pain getting them off.
