I agree, rattlecan it.  MRO is the best rattlecan paint I have ever used in my life and I will not use anything else.  It sticks like a powdercoat and is almost impossible to chip.  I can't even sandblast it off my spring hanger.
in the projects nooga, anything goes

THat sucks.  I just painted my rig, and they didnt even card me.  I did that self checkoutthing and the guy just looked at me and scanned it through.  I havent gotten carded since I was 15.  Mabye it has something to do with the fact that I can grow a full beard in about a week :biggthumpup:
