I remember Evercoat products being cheaper too. Prices for everything are going up sad to say.
I have a memory of the can of rage gold going from $38 to $43 back around the turn of the century and my old boss getting upset about that. A tub of bondo the same size was about half the price but was heavier and crap to work with in comparison. Which reminds me of Glue Products Plus a local specialty place I used to deal with when I was working in car audio. I'm pretty sure they sell to the public. I completley forgot they existed. They had every kind of adhesive, epoxy, paint, fiberglass, resins, etc you could think of.

Field trip Friday
Thanks guys

After visiting GPP today I was pleasantly greeted with the overwhelming smell of paint shop/boat factory and think that would be a great air freshener scent.

Found some DAP brushable seam sealer that can be applied in regular caulk gun $27 a tube. Then, talking to one of the old employees, he ended up reccomending the same stuff.

5 gal of polyester boat resin is now $180, up almost $100 in last couple years. Didn't even see any Evercoat stuff just overpriced Eastwood filler. It's crazy how little projects on vehicles cost so much now.

Raptor bedliner kit was around $200 and was recommended. I helped a buddy do his jeep with it and after time it had held up and was easy to apply, but I would prefer something more elastomeric, or rubbery. Even building up layers of it dried rock hard. More like some old Zeibart rubberized undercoating, with better adhesion.

IIRC the original rhino liner had a slightly rubberized texture. Any recommendations?
