Yes - the plastic wrap trick will work and I hate that I didn't mention it but I
still prefer the six packs. I never have been impressed w/a half full can of
<fill in the blank here>. I like to give pints to good friends that haven't
used it yet. They always say "I owe ya one for that one".
Anybody have any problems w/UV damage using just the etching primer / POR15 and
not the frame black or whatever top coats added? Most of my coated pieces are
still in covered storage and since I haven't been using POR15 long - I'm not
sure how the nice finish I have now will last under severe road duty / outdoor
storage.
Thanks,
Shane
