Don't know if I would cover a truck in it, but for what I used it for it worked out pretty good. I'll end up replacing my front fiberglass bumper cover next time it comes off anyway, so we will see how it weathers.

It did go on and cover pretty easy. Dries pretty hard, widely available, and cheap. I'm in it under $100, much cheaper than the costs and downtime associated with a full repaint.

Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with painting their grill black and it lasting. I did my 08 Prostar and it didn't hold up. I really liked the look so I'm going to try it again. I got a great deal on six aluminum wheels and eight tires for 600.00. Gonna get the wheels powder coated black and spend a Saturday switching over. Want to do the truck and trailer, I hear the powder coat holds up.
Any information or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
