    I'm going to bed liner my roof in the next two months, I'm really thinking I should go ahead and do my door sills with the extra. I think if I order a gallon of monstaliner I will have almost half a gallon left after the roof.

    If I had that attitude I’d have at least two illegitimate kids by now with those cheap condoms that always break. :burp:

    Yeah 1gal should be plenty for his roof and sills. Close the garage door and you won’t need any beers, you also might not wake up

    Yeah but the moment you make your Fun into Work and tip that balance then its all ruined. 15 years of buying Paddlesports and I barely find the motivation anymore to want to go kayak on my days off.

    Current project is relocating to be living in the middle of the recreation so that I force myself to not use the 20 min drive as an excuse. Last week the house we looked at was 1/2 mile from the boat ramp in a town of 175. This week gonna go look at some 40+ acre lots.

    That's what I figured. I'm trying to think of ways to use up the rest. Maybe I'll do the inside of my ammo cans to deaden any noises from within. I was considering doing my speaker box but I'm imagining it would be pretty bad if it fumes in the Summers.

    Once it gasses, it’s done.

    Then maybe I'll do that after all. I can leave the box outside a few days.

    I remember we determined your paint was likey single stage so that was probably just oxidation you were seeing. Don't want to try buffing it first? You'd know in 10 minutes if it was FUBAR or not.

    I tried it but that didn't go anywhere. I hit it with a rubbing compound in one area trying to cut through the crap, no luck. I used some wax and polish and tried to shine it up and that looked good until it dried and I just had waxed crap.

    The hood isn't as bad but is following suit, I will try to keep the hood from getting worse but the roof is a lost cause. I don't mind bed liner up there, doesn't look bad on an already black truck and to be honest nobody sees it.

    Fancy door sills or fancy climate control knobs? Which one is worse?
