it wont stick to bare metal or old paint so sand it and prime it first

its great but I can see where im gonna hafta be a little carefull for the first month since it starts out kinda rubbery and is slowly getting harder as the sun is baking it on very similar to the way those spray on bed liners are.

I just did it last week and the tips were still flexible for the first two days so im not gonna be dragging ice chests around just yet until it gets baked on good.

right now its like ceiling texture and real pointy so bare foot is kinda poky and if you slid on this stuff you'd have serious road rash from it lol

the coating itself ended up about 1/8" to 3/16" thick not counting the points which I assume will break off during normal use of dragging stuff across the floor.

if I needed to do it again I would buy this stuff to do it.

I will suggest getting a very light shade color so its not hot in the summer, I went with grey wash which is like cigarette ash grey (almost white)

its goopy and goes on kinda like mayonnaise, use a brush for vertical surfaces and you can go over it with a roller for a better texture match after you apply it if there is room to do that
