Love the stuff!!!!!!!! That and Ultra Cote in the plastic. Only thing I use anymore. Tex will make you look like A Pro. You can use any paint you like then shoot it with A couple of light coats of water base clear flat Urathane and let it sit for A couple of days to fuel proof the paint. Dope is very heavy so I don't ever use it but it will work too. Just all around good stuff and after it has been out in the sun once and shrunk back up it doesn't blister or sag.
