    What do you call that paint..?

    What do you call that paint that is like a body deadener that they spray on the underside of cars and sometimes in boots and tubs..

    Was thinking the front of my bonnet cops all those stone chips bad and am sick of smashing the bonnet guard and losing them... the last one is on the Caledonia track in Butcher country.

    If you find it can you pick it up for me....lol

    What do you think of this idea as right now there is so much paint missing from the front edge of my bonnet it is starting to look rough as guts.

    Spray putty I think, but you can buy textured finishes as well as stick on sheet for the sills
    Ill find a link for some clear stick on stuff, I have 50mm Mylar here if thats would suit yor needs
    I have it across the front of the GU and love it

    I'd probably mask off the front of your bonnet and spray it to match if possible then apply
    some stick on clear contact about 150mm wide should cover the front and back on to the top a bit
    as well, a bit like a skin wrap
    You're not thinking of chicken Shite are you??

    I used a rubberized spray can on the inside of the wheel wells.
    but only in black

    Still think a clear sheet would look better, Ill get a pic of my bonnet for you, as you can ee you can hardly see it
    Mylar is one of the toughest stuff going around, you cant tear it or break it in any way, you would need a 3"-4"
    strip its about 2mm thick so absorbs rock strikes, $$$$ as all get out but thats the best product out there for the job
    you want to do, As you can see nearly invisible too

    You mean bed liner I'm guessing?

    Similar to this stuff http://m.supercheapauto.com.au/Produ...ck-450g/343534

    Or if you wanted to be a hack you could Just sand it back and paint it with rustoleom with a high density foam roller

    You dont want a hard textured finish it will just chip ,
    its needs to have a bit of give, again mylar is the best
    for the job,or a rubberised paint
    Ill see from some mates if its available to the public

    You can get what is called 'stone guard'. Used to be used on sills. It's a spray able paint. Not sure if u can get it in a pressure pack. 2 pac paint is worse for stone chips.
