Which 3m undercoat did you use? I've seen several different ones. I was going to use raptor liner on some inner fenders but I'm thinking about undercoat instead.

I agree - it's always great to have a like-minded neighbor. I bought my "Low Buck Tools" bead roller years ago and never regretted the purchase. Since then, I've modified it with a HF winch, so I don't have to ask Kathy to be my helper. It's a very handy tool for all sorts of metal shaping.

I usually use the 3M 08964 Body Schutz, but it requires a special applicator gun and throwaway plastic tube. I ran across a deal for the 03584-aerosol version and decided to give it a try. I think the Body Schutz goes on thicker and is more durable, but neither product is as tough as Raptor or other bed liners. My goal was more cosmetic than durability, so the aerosol works okay in that regard.
