Jeeps The tough off road capability of ANY Jeep model from the Wrangler to the fully loaded Grand Cherokee keeps this cousin of Dodge the king of every hill.

I gave in to the FAD!!!

I hope that the adhesion promoter helps. That kinda makes me wonder how well this stuff is gonna hold up on rims like quite a few people have done.

Yeah Johnny, after reading how everyone else just basically cleaned the surface to be painted, I thought doing a plastic step pad would hold up fine. Cleaned it with soap and water, then after it dried, I hit it good with an alcohol prep pad. I was kinda disappointed when it was taken right off well after 24 hours later by just a littlle rub with the round plastic bottom of my golf bag! I could see if it was metal, or sharp. Had two good coats on it too.

So, like I said, I used some adhesion promoter on the gray plastic parts after that. We shall see...

There you go, damn thinkin' again 'bullet...

I just walked out to the garage and grabbed a can. It says to avoid direct sunlight - did that. Avoid high humidiy - HA! I live in the deep south! Wait 30 mins. between coats - did that. Allow 4 hours drying time before use. As stated, it was about 28 hours before I went to play golf and the bag rubbed against it...
