My 6 year FC project

Hey Bill, I just used the Herculiner on the plastic molding on my XJ and found some interesting shit out about it. The supplied brush leaves the most amount of texture. Too much for my fender flares. A standard short nap paint roller leaves much less. An Epoxy roller - something that you'd find at a hardware store if you're lucky or a marine store for sure will give you the least amount of texture. You can actually roll out most of the texture with that type of brush. A shutz gun gives alot of texture but the coverage isn't as good as with the roller.

The Lizard skin doesn't really suffer from the covereage problem as much as the Herculiner. It seems to want to run and pool more so be careful with that.

After all that's been said I plan on rolling both on my FC and spraying both on the FD. Reason being is that the paint onthe FC is done and if it strays, I'll have to kill someone.
