Thanks but this my 60th! I was 13 in 1963 when I went to my first one. Of those 60 years, I narrated the OCF for 35 years: more than half of the time I was in attendance and about half of all OCFs. Very proud of that.

POR-15

Who has used this on a chassis, what prep did you do, did you use a brush, did it leave brush marks and did you like the results?
