Thanks Keith! The amount of time those bed & doors saved me was immense!

It's actually SPI epoxy primer. It's not "designed" to be a topcoat, but I was recommended this by some guys that have sprayed their rat rods with it and has held up great for several years under 24/7 UV exposure. Best part is if I decide I want a pretty color someday (likely), I just have to scuff, seal & shoot. I'm really liking the satin look for now though, I'm shocked at all the head turns & thumbs up I've gotten with it in the last week.
