Wondering if anyone has used this coating and what was our experiences with it?

A lot of the buggy guys have coated their pans with this and are reporting great results.
I actually picked up a kit to do my pan on the baja too, but haven't got that far yet 😊

Smiley I'm definitely planing on doing the baja pan with it but also thinking of doing the T3 exterior with it, but have read that it has little to no UV resistance.

Yeah mate. Won't hold it's colour very well in the sun. Best best would be to Raptor it then topcoat in your colour of choice.
I know Oztowdster did the LHD Tow'd body with it. It was tinted a dark blue/purple colour, but it is super faded now. And that is only a few years old.
