Looks good and the color looks like a good match.
You did the underside and the inside with one gallon? If so, it seems to me it went a long ways.
Any comments on spraying vs. rolling especially in how the texture might be different between the two?

I sprayed the underside with a gallon and wasnt able to get full coverage. I bought two more gallons. I used another half gallon to do the fenders and finish the coating underneath. I used the other half (rolled) to do the inside of my roof cap in white.
After learning some lessons, I rolled the inside because the product went a lot further that way and i liked the texture.
I had the pigment identical to my paint mixed up at a paint shop.

Great information here... I am planning on using this on my FJ60 and hoping to mimic a similar two tone as seen on the FJ62s. This will be a summer project though as I have some rust to take care of first.
I was wondering about using a different open cell roller so grab a smoother finish but it seems as long as I don't hit it more than once I should get a pretty consistent, orange peel like texture.

Meant going over the same coat with the roller more than once after it had tacked up..

Stretched it...
I rolled mine and after the second coat, didn't re-roll as recommend and the texture is pretty smooth (dimpled but smooth). I can easily work around the surface and not destroy my hands.

Any chance you could take some close, far away, and angled pics for me and post here?!
Ditto. I want to achieve that two tone paint scheme with the monstaliner but want to try and make it as smooth as possible.

FF347 - take a look in my thread about ALT Paint Jobs in the 60 forum. I found that the Light Quartz Gray and Pyroclastic really were the closest to that combination and have a good tonal offset/contrast.
Was this ever answered or addressed? Living in Texas I am sure the body panels of my truck exceed 150 degrees though out the summer. I would love more of a explanation of exactly what the service temp is. Thanks.
That 122F was a mistake back in the early days of writing literature
We've tested ML in ovens and with blow torches on back of coated steel panels past 200 F with no problems. Coating softens slightly past 190F and returns to normal on cooling
Great, thanks!

lol, hard to argue that 
BTW, summer time heat in Vegas gets to 115 easily sometimes. The monstaliner on my hood has not been affected at all by the sun or engine temps.

Here's a crazy ML project. Sprayed white with spattered and hand printed Blood Bath

That is awesome for a Heep! Love the splatter and hand prints.
News of the day... I have paid my bill to be a vendor on IH8MUD!
