Just so you know it covered the aluminum trim piece on my gate very well. I did rough it up with some 150 grit sand paper first though. First coat was thin an did not look good. Second coat was a bit heavier, but not enough to run an covered very well. It smooths out nicely an is pretty forgiving if light coats are applied.

Here is a picture of a Jeep done with the bed coating I'm using. Give you an idea of what a finished product looks like.

Yeah it has a semi satin kinda shiny finish. If I get my body work done an it turns out OK it will look good. If not this stuff shows dents worse then the stock paint.

Changed up my bolt pattern with some wheel adapters and then threw on some new shoes.
