sweeeeet! You will have to post some pics in the sunlight of the whole truck. I like the look a lot. I may have to do this for sure...especially since I gotta re-do my rockers anyway. How long did it take you alltogether? Seems like the sanding would take a while

Took along time about 6 hours of prep another 3 of actual lining but I stripped my cab corners and rockers of rust and chassis saver-ed them, its 3-5 hours to first coat dry, but u can leave it over night, second coat will take 24 hrs for very light usage 7 days to fully cure to rock hard. I live on gravel roads and drive 60-70 on em so im waiting the whole week, I misted it with water after 24hrs, moisture helps the curing process. Will post more pics soon. Next up is a bull bar and I've been talking to weedahoe about a light kit for my grille.
