Consumer Reports Reviews Cladding Treatments

[ALC1717]

I Just Had My Entire VX Cladding Professionally Painted & Baked On In A Spray Booth With Gatorback Plastic Coating Paint. Finally The Satin Look I Desired, No More Streaks, & No More Applying Any Treatments Like Showroom New And Back To Black Etc. - Just Soap & Water - It Looks Amazing !!!!

Hi where did you get that done and how much was it
I would be interested in doing something like that

I get streaks no matter what I apply to the cladding
That looks awesome

I also used GB and love the stuff!!! I taped off the paint and sprayed three coats for a nearly flawless, even finish. The best part is how this products dries evenly. I've also used it on some black interior pieces with great results. It helps cover up scratches/inperfections but also hides the original cladding texture a bit.

The Bad: GB still comes off with a strong dose of gasoline and it's essentially a special paint vs keeping the cladding original (and faded ).

3 aerosol cans of GB and one can of cleaner will give you enough to spray the entire cladding and have some leftover for future touch-ups.

What is this faded you speak of....

I wonder if Krylons' Fusion line of spray paints for plastics would be similar if the surface was prepped sufficiently?

With All Due Respect You Guys Do Not Seem To Understand. I Had My Cladding Prepped, Painted & Baked On In A Professional Spray Booth NOT With An Aerosol Spray Can !

Can you give us a ballpark figure on what it would cost us if we chose to do the GB professionally with booth and all?

Okay so will hold up a bit better? GB still looks the same to me on the cladding, aerosol or professionally applied. It's surprising how evenly it applies for an aerosol.

Latest picture from SL,UT in March. This 3 months after the initial application.

My question really shouldn't have started a pissing contest. Perhaps you didn't understand the difference between baking Gatorback on your cladding and the way that Krylons' Fusion paint series chemically bonds to plastics?
