Sprayed some Epoxy today, it went on much thicker than House of Kolor even tho I put some reducer in it (only about 2%)
Supposed to be Grey/Green but looks much more grey, the photo makes it look completely grey.

I think the big test will be how well it holds up around rosett welds

Hey Nuts,
Not my intention to build a Trans Am type car but when I install the Export brace I find I can flex the shock towers and brace.
I saw similiar braces on Howard Astill's 66 mustang and decided to do a removable version, Howards were solid welded.
