    While waiting on a fuel line part (Thanks Evan) I decided to splash some roll on undercoat on the inside of the front fenders.

    Prep work done (time consuming). I find cutting in with a brush .... Well I don't like it. Remembering work I had done on my two 43 ft boats ... I wondered if the weenie rollers would be a lot easier. Yes indeed cut most of the brush work out and worked great on the curves. Layed down nice. 20170704_124420.jpg

    Recently did some roll-on undercoating work too, the key was a long-nap roller (and I see you used a nice 1/2" nap) to get texture in the applied product.

    yup and the 4 inch weenie roller sure makes it nice while laying on your back. I am sure with a 9 inch roller I would have the stuff everywhere.
