That's been my experience, too, for all except their Damp-Proof Primer in a brush-on can.

That stuff seems to work, long-term!

That photo is all over the internet, shopped into various colors and paint schemes.

Most with the exact same backdrop, too.

I'd like mine in **** carpet with floppy ears.

Now I understand the craze to convert F150s into cheapo Raptors.

Recon I could drive a avian dinosaur and still rest in the coffinursion?

No need to worry about telling Missy right now I hope

The mil-spec looks great! Still haven't gotten into my 220 to see where the pressure leak is. Took the Big Hat up last time and it's got a problem too...holds pressure fine, but when I lit it up I got flame coming up over the hat

We've got light up there now though, so it's not a pressing issue.
