Re: Using bedliner in a boat...
Hydra-Sport_Roadkill,
The laughs were what I was going for more than not. Most everyone that is in direct contact with me give me the impression that they think I?ll break if I smile or laugh. I guess if I look at it through their eyes, it must be hard wondering if I?m going to make it through again and again and again. I think it drives them all crazy that I won?t stop and lay around doing nothing. The thing is I refuse to stop living my life just because it might end. I think we all have to face that but I?m not going to sit and wait for it.
Just remember that taking half a day to do something for someone who might have to sit beside you and spoon feed you; then clean you when it comes out the other end, because you can?t do it at the moment, is priceless. Not that I?m trying to get into your business I?m just putting it out there because stool happens!
Thanks for the welcome back!

I will post some pictures but it might take a while because I am actually facing two more surgeries. When you?re born susceptible to circulatory system problems it has a tendency to affect other areas in your body, especially areas that receive their blood flow through capillaries. I have one of seven discs in my neck that is normal. The other six are in various stages of deterioration, three have totally collapsed. They are thinking that they can go in and remove what is pressing on the spinal cord and give me enough relief to avoid them having to totally fuse my neck. My second is for my lower back; same problem, only one disc but it is the one above my last fusion. It?s hard to tell right now how that will turn out.
Teamster,
As far as it not being flexible goes you can avoid that problem by adding a flex-agent just like when painting a plastic bumper on a car. To give you an idea how flexible you can make paint, I'll share an experience that I have had with flex-agents.
I once worked for a company that repaired car interiors. I went from dealer to dealer, repairing vinyl and leather and then spraying a paint based dye to bring the part back to factory fresh, dying carpets was also very big. Anyway to keep this short; multiple colors on your white sneakers make you look like you are starting a clown outfit. When I had enough laughs I would wipe them down with lacquer thinner, give them a even coat of adhesion promoter and then double up on the flex agent when I mixed the fresh white paint. I wore the soles off of them and the paint never cracked or peeled.
I was looking more to see if anyone had tried it and liked it. I could have never imagine painting it over fasteners because I know for sure if I did, I would find that I needed to get to something I just covered and of course it would be while it was still wet.
Anyway it looks like I?m getting ready to have some free time on my hands so I was trying to get things together. I?ll take pictures and post as I can.
Thanks for the replies!
