The problem is going be to much adhesion!!! once applied it will take c-4 to remove it!!. they apply this stuff over rubber membrane,masonary,plastics,frp (fiberglass), epoxy and even some asphalt applications. There is gonna be no problem with sticking. This is actually the same alephatic compound as kiwi grip or gorrilla grip just doesnt have the chunky chips in it. Its a smooth surface. comes out finished with a 35 mil. thickness.

Could I have used a similar product on my motorhome roof? If so, that's awesome stuff....I've used it for numerous applications around the house. What color does it go on? The stuff I use is white, sold by gallon or 5 gallon

The only way I can explain it is that its a polyurethane sealant coating. kinda like 3m 5200, but 5200 is a aromatic witch is not very uv stable and not very color retentive (5200 chaulks up after a while and yellows). this compound is a aliphatic witch was made for top coating aromatics. Being aliphatic makes it a super coating which is highly uv stable and holds its color retention for a very very very long time. Theres only one down fall to this stuff, If i decide to take it off one day its gonna be impossible!!!! lol!!!

Well the day is good!!! the rep. for SRC drove literally 30 minutes to my house just to give me a free 5 gallon bucket of this coating. he is very anxious to see how my application comes out. He also mentioned if this works out the way he expects it to that he is willing to want to start trying to market this stuff for the marine industry. Kinda exciting thing to be a guinne pig. should be doing some testing on saturday afternoon over raw glass and gel coat. My liner will and side of my cockpit will be primed and painted with perfection but all my imediate deck and cap with rolled with this product.

Kracker, is this stuff like RhinoLiner for truck beds? If it is than I put similar stuff on my V21's boat deck 2 years ago and it's amazing how nice it is. And yes, if you ever have to remove it you're gonna hate it.
