Thanks guys! I really enjoy doing it. Stroked...you can't paint the liner but it comes in about 200 different colors. Itsva 2 step process when doing other colors, gotta spray the vortex material on, the we put a uv stable top coat material over it in the color. The material is also made by vortex, called granitex.

Cool, didnt know that. Are there alot of dealers out there for vortex? Never heard of them, atleast around here. We mainly have linex here. I used duplicolor spray on liner in the can. So far its holdin up good except where I didnt prep it good enough.

I used liner that was actually colored on my rear rocker panel. Didnt match perfect but its pretty damn close. Ill have to dig the can out and see what the name of it was. Its a little harder than bedliner, but its used for bedliner, boat decks, docks, pretty much anything that would need a skid proof coating. Ive had it on there for a few months and its holding up nice.

There are 1500 in the country. But most people never heard of them, unfortunatly for us dealers they dont advertise much. It is a great product, and is amazing really, but most ads I see are for selling machines not product.

Oh gotcha... I install kitchens, and bathrooms. I consider that building kitchens, but actually making the cabinets would be fun too. I love wood working too. I made a custom door for a friend the other day and loved every minuite of it.

I wish I had a shop, I love working with wood. I just don't have the room to do it often. I'm workin on getting a shop in our next house though. Having the house built so I'm going to see about getting a matching shop built with it.
