    First of all I was searching for undercoating options on the internet. I'm looking to do my Comet real soon. I came across this Herculiner stuff. Anybody have any experience with it?

    The funny part is this message board thread I ran across during my search. It had me rolling.

    I think post #91 is the best. He wrote a song about it, and it is sung to the Smash Mouth's hit, All Star.

    I laughed as hard as the first time I read it.

    Dennis have you looked at the Lizardskin products?

    Yea, thats one of the things I checked out. My only problem with it is it is pretty thin even after a couple of coats. I'm wanting something thick that will last.

    Since the car is on a rottiserie you could take it down to the local Line-X shop. Their product sprays on at a heated temperature and cures very nice. I have had both Rhino and Line-X and I will choose Line-X again when the time comes.
