This is 2 coats, according to my cousin, by 3-4 coats it thickens up, so if it eliminates any uneven edges and looks decent, i am good. If it fails miserably I will just peel it off and sand the surface and try again. I guess that is the beauty of this stuff.

Here is coat 1 of por-15!, getting excited, carpet is here and ready to install, went with clarks molded, and really happy I did, my dad owns a flooring store and he offered his "black" carpet to put in, however the molded looks sweet, and of course is correct. I also have some other little things arriving soon in the mail I hope, more to come.

Hopefully this week I will have time to put the new buckets in, they have headrests, not sure if I will like them or not, seat belts, and corsa shift boot once I get it all cleaned up.
