I am interested in how the color will hold up.  How thick do you think you have it applied?  I could consider redoing my floors & side panels with it, and it comes in the appropriate colors.

How do you like the top?  What others did you consider?

one local company will coat the inside with "box liner" thickness and then spray the outside in a thinner coat. We shot the side of a Jeep that was coated with this with a 12 guage shot gun at about 25' and it didn't make much of a mark.....he tried the slug after but that is another story and that did leave a mark.....left some glass in the bottom of the door and a hole in the seat.

I'm not sure about the stuff you've got but the porfessional box liner stuff was a pain if you wanted to weld in some panels or need to get to the metal to do some work.
