  • In this video I walk you through how to apply Raptor Liner to the lid of my US General Tool Cart. This is a great mod for any tool cart or work surface. Not only does it look amazing, this rugged and durable finish is sure to last a long time if applied properly.

    I’m glad you used a breathing apparatus . I’ve had friends that painted without proper breathing apparatus and they are no longer on this earth. Nice job.

      Trust me, it is necessary. That stuff gets everywhere and it is awful to clean off. I knew this from a project I had done prior with it.

    0:30 I thought most people used it to hold a top box… I did. But i do have a separate 70” 14-drawer base that I built but used a piece of 3/4” mdf for a violence absorber.

  • @MrHeHim
    @MrHeHim 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Nice, might have been easier to remove the top and paint it outside. But I'm sure it was too cold back in January ;-P
    Side note, i was going to put a 1/2" thick peace of wood on top but this might be a better idea. Or maybe still a peace of wood and cheap sheet metal WITH! bed liner, I'm sure that will take hammer blows and drilling through the work material while not slipping

    adhesive promoter is generally used on plastics or something you cant sand. the lid was powdercoated so it shoulda been sanded if ya want the raptor liner to bite into the metal instead of laying on top.
