i used 3m yesterday because i had 3/4 a tube left....its expensive and they say its good but i think it takes too long to dry...i bought some different stuff at the paint shop that is paintable withing 30 mins and cost a 3rd of the price....the guys at the shop use the 6.50 stuff ...i dont think the 3m stuff is worth the 20 bucks...they both do the same thing and the cheap stuff dries way faster..you should ask eric what he thinks he paints a lot..

Thingys are the greatest invention of all time. A good thingy here and there'll fix anything.
