looks great B K did you also go with 2 coats

not even close to an expert on that jeff but my thoughts are you've gone that far and have it exposed so you might as well fix her rite while your in there.

thanks again-i used a pressure washer with muliple degreasers and after floating around with many gallons i would wetvac it all out including the broken down sludge lol. it worked great but me backs alittle sore from climbing in an out of shrinkwrap door and crawling around down there but well worth...
