Finally got some pics for you guys of a K5 with Al's Liner sprayed in it. The guy was really happy with it, and it turned out really nice. He said he used two gallons and it came out great. Said another 1/2 gallon would have been ideal.

Yep, he sprayed that himself.

If you wanted me to spray yours with Scorpion, it would be about $500. Doesn't matter if you prep it, I'd prep it anyway once I got it. Since I'm warrantying it, I do all the prep to be sure it is all ready to get the best coating possible.
 
I have a question, ok six :D, So how thick does this stuff spray on or how thick can you spray it on? How rough is it? Does the prep have to be bare metal or if paint is adheared good just roughed up? Should you primer bare metal before coating?
 
1 - a normal application (3 gallons for K5 interior) would be about 1/8"
2 - You can spray it as thick as you want, you'd just need more material
3 - Roughness depends on how you spray it, but generally you'll get a texture similar to a plastic truck bedliner. It isn't "rough" as in it would be uncomfortable with bare feet, but it is "rough" where it would be skid resistant. That make any sense?
4 - Doesn't need to be bare metal, just roughed up
5 - Bare metal doesn't need to be primed, but it does help. A light coating of epoxy primer is ideal.
6 - You need 15 gallons and 4 guns for your job. (I only saw 5 questions, so I made up an answer for an imaginary 6th :p:)

Nice to see your on your toes, I was testin ya, you see. Your right, there was only 5. You passed! :D :haha:Thanks for the info. I did read the writeup in the interior forum after I posted this. I'm going to possibly do this myself. Need to wait till some vacation time is built up enough to get it all done in a weeks time. Prep is gonna take a good few days I bet. Thanks again.
 
Yeah, just taking all the crap out of the interior is time consuming. I'm in the process of spraying Al's Sound Deadener in our 98 Trans Am. I've been pulling interior parts for liek a week straight! :haha:
 
Very good observation, I've been doing it so long I didn't even think about that!
 
Can you match a color? I have a Blue color sample I coud send you if you could match it. Are still having a sale? Could I get a quote on 4 Gal. to 90717. Thanks man.
