lol not 300$ worth thats for sure I'll just keep at it and hope for the best i suppose

A guy i work with used the same etching primer and only used 1 coat and he mentioned he wished he had used a second coat of primer because it doesn't take much to chip the paint and primer off of his right down to the bare aluminum. I then read rustoleum documentation you should put on a light...

good advice, i appreciate that, there is no color on my fingers, should i wait a week before applying additional coats?

Theres supposed to be noise coming from the paint can????? :shock: :lol: - LOL yes i shook the can and quite a bit i've never had problems spray painting things but ive never used this particular finish before - it actually looks green in person, combination of the flash and the fluorescent...

Well I'll be damned. Must not have been too terrible of an idea if someone took the time to make it into a marketable product. Thats pretty slick but i have to admit a couple of pulleys, a $60 electric winch and some good ol hillbilly engineering seems more practical than whatever at rack...
