    Preped and then painted passenger area with chasis saver today. Wheeew that stuff has an odor....make sure you got the area vented well. Tomorrow the second coat goes on. Was tacky still at 8 pm, started putting it on at 2 pm. I just hope the odor goes away and only lasts a few days.

    Well, been working on the floor board off and on and finally got finished, only repaired what was needed. Now getting ready for the Chasis Saver to go on.
