ON3P kick a$$

i use part-all #2 from tap. works good, nothing sticks at all with full epoxy

just saw this post, haven't logged on in a while. i have found that using a brush with the pu coatings leaves the streaks that rockaukum was talking about. home depot sells small dia foam rollers with a blue handle that work really well. three coats followed by wet sanding with really fine paper, th...
