Trunk redo, follow up
I didn't use the spray, it was the sheets... The way I did it, it has taken
almost a large box and a half, and I still have the floor, firewall and
drivers door to do... I plan to use the spray for those areas that I just
can't get to any other way...
BTW, I got the dead pedal... It looks great! Thanks...
