last night i started working on another of Cloud 9's problem areas. The self leveling Evercoat drip rail sealer that we used had started cracking, it made me worried that some rust had came up from underneath. I had personally cleaned it out the first time and i knew that the metal was perfect underneath. Turns out it is still perfect so i have no idea why it cracked out. I also had a couple bubbles come up in the cab corner area, i guess there must be some tiny pinholes in some of the weld spots?

Going all the way! Please tell me you’re sticking with the same color

I like the firewall, assume the lines are bead roll? They look better with a little bit of detail, instead of completely flat, in my opinion. What’s the price on a set of those?

Mike... I have heard several issues with the Evercoat self leveling sealer... The best out there is the 3M part #08307...

This is what I used on Papa J...
