It was a combination of a kit from lowes (I'll have to find the name), but also added flakes, and a clear topcoat.

So all in all:
Base prep from kit
Color from lowes/seperate (the kit color was cheesy, and looked to just be a stain)
flakes from lowes/seperate
2 can epoxy topcoat from kit

All in all supplies were less than $200

Once its really cured, I've got some garage carpet (a dark gray) precut for that curb that I'll install.

He asked why, and I told him I like how those old ones spray hard and fast and would keep it any day over a new water saving head that only puts out damn near a soft mist.

Simple fix... after he puts the new head on, remove it with a pair of needle nose pliers. The water saver is a small piece of plastic that partially covers the holes in the head.

Learned it on the Neil Bortz show.

Only problem I've heard with that epoxy is that if you live in a "wet" area water/moisture gets trapped underneath pretty easy and causes it to bubble and peel....guess you won't have that problem in Az though. __________________ No.....**** you!
