Has been very durable at commercial hangers........brake fluid will eat it though......I found out the hard way when I bled my brakes........Madhat, mix the two parts into a five gallon bucket and use a roller screen......much easier than a tray.

Not even close. It'll be another few weeks... I have to get landlord approval, then move everything to one side and prep... I'm gonna take my time and do it good.

You know, the crap they put on the hanger floor back in Beaufort was AWESOME. That crap felt about an inch thick, had good roughness, and was STRONG... wish I could get my hands on some of that stuff.

I may be too cheap to buy the bucket and screen... I've already got a roller pan and some trays... (man, I'm freaking cheap!) Thanks, I'll grab that stuff.

I did that on a dock plate at work once. I took a gallon of paint and mixed in some sand and it lasted all of 2 days with our lift trucks going over it.

I've never done it with commercial truck traffic, only aircraft maintenance.
