[QUOTE="rellis1962, post: 155651, member: 2519"] I am about finished with the front deck. KiwiGrip looks good. Started to install some of the electrical that will not require removal in order to get the wiring done. Also installed the bow rod holder mounts. Live well is just sitting in the hole at this point because I still need to insulate it. That lid got awful hot sitting in the sun so I decided to go ahead and insulate it before final installation. Can only work on it about 1 1/2 hr 2 or 3 evenings a week because of other family duties. My 16 yo son cruses by and lends a hand occasionally but is more interested in the stereo and whether I am going to install an amp and if he can connect his Ipod to it. He is a good boy, just has teenage boy stuff on his mind these days. KiwiGrip was tricky to apply to the larger surfaces and still get an even-looking texture. Also had to plan the application so as to be able to remove the masking tape as I went. Stuff seems pretty durable - we will see. The purchased storage hatches are bothering me because of their color. I bought them cheap cheap on clearance. I am sure it was the color that wasn't so popular. Oh well, on the bright side, they work great!
