[QUOTE="huntinfool, post: 349317, member: 1931"] On the steel flex, my dad bought the same stuff for me. You mix the color with the hardener. You only get one chance to put it on, so I'd suggest you do a small test run first. ( what I mean is you can't come back later and re-apply, it wont stick. So try and get it all prepped and have a couple extra hands around...just in case.) You'll need to mix in quite a bit of the color. I didn't and mine came out see through. Plus, I tried to do mine while hanging....big no no. Do it upside down like you have it. I used a roller and it worked great, but I did have to brush the corners of the chines. Also I bought the 1/2 gal. of each to make a gallon for my 1860, I really didn't have enough. Give it several days to dry and then the most important thing I can tell you is Do NOT unhook your boat until it is in the water, or you will launch it early :oops::D [/QUOTE]
