A while back (check the date), Cal posted this email on "Bond-Aid". This
spring I painted my lower valance (airdam) with it. It works very nice. It
is very tacky. It remindes me of the difference between regular RTV, and
using "The Right Stuff". I didn't even scuff the exterior surface. I
washed the entire valance, then cleaned the surface several times with
laquer thinner. Sprayed the "Bond-Aid" and painted per instructions. I'll
let you all know how it holds up over time. Course you can all come to C@C
next year to see for yourselves. :'B
I also painted my grille, but didn't use the "Bond-Aid". It will be
interesting to see which one holds up better.

Just read in my latest Wood magazine a product test and rating of a new
product called "Bond-Aid". This is a new product in a spray can that you
would use as a primer for plastic and other surfaces where you wouldn't
normally get good adhesion with paint. They report that the product did
perform as advertised.
If anyone wants to see the article, it is in the February 2001 issue of Wood
magazine, page 90.
FWIW
