  • @Elkmonger
    @Elkmonger Год назад

    Austin, Be careful with an undercoating/sealants that won't set up like Fluid Film or Surface Shield that stuff can creep out of pinch and lap seams long after it's applied and cause you FITS when you're trying to prep for final prime and paint. After the final paint then yea get that all protected. Also, congratulations on the Milwaukee shear. Order a replacement cutter for the shear now. Trust me you'll snap that sucker at the worst time.
