How thick is your stuff? I was originally quoted $250 for a gallon of base and a gallon of hardener. When I picked it up, they charged me $199.

I don’t recall as it’s based on percent solids and stuff, but I remember it being more than the 65%ish solids and 3-5mils they listed in the product spec for the stuff you ordered.

And you only needed a gallon of each?

Edit - Just found the product specs on the stuff I used, it 100% solids and has a thickness of 9.7mils. So roughly 3-4 times as thick.

That’s about the same coverage I got but I have a three car so I needed the second set but threw most of it in the trash.

Really curious to see how it holds up as that is remarkably cheaper than mine. Think I paid $750 in materials. If I halved that for coverage needs, it’d still be almost twice as much.

This is how mine turned out. My flake broadcasting left something to be desired but it was my first time.
