I used it on my doors and floor... works well. And probably a lot cheaper. Did not use it under the hood tho. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 336 Member | | Member Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 336 | The local marine supplies place carries it. I like the idea of painting it on - the other stuff may become unglued and catch fire.
