    is awesome! I picked up a can from Advanced Auto because it was the first time I'd seen a truck bed liner available in something other than black or grey. I sprayed a Wiedbad Mini Tac Pod to try the stuff out and it turned out so good that I'm spraying my Game Changer right now. It's got good texturing, it's grippy, and it seems pretty durable, possibly more durable than the Plasti Dip spray that I've used in the past but we'll see I suppose. Other than being offered in OD and FDE, what I like about this product is that it doesn't give off the same kind of fumes that Plasti Dip spray did. I'd still crack a window if you're going to spray inside but it's unlikely you're significant other is going to complain about you stinking up the whole house.

    They call FDE "Sandstorm" and it matches reasonably well with the Multicam. I thought I'd pass on this option for those guys that want to add some grip to the barricade bags or something.

    Kinda screwed up on the Game Changer, I was rushing to get it done before a match last weekend and it had not cured all the way. I basically had to start over, which is why the top looks jacked up but I'm pretty happy with it otherwise.

    The rubberized coating really grabs onto a barricade or a rifle pretty well.

    If you are going to use this stuff here are my lessons learned.

    1. Go easy on the coats, it goes on just like paint so if you go to heavy on the coats or too soon, then it's not going to cure right and looked jacked up. That's what happened on my first attempt on the GC.
    2. Let it cure overnight at least. I made the mistake of thinking that if it was dry to the touch then it was good to go, it's not, let it set for about 24 hours.
    3. This stuff goes on flat surfaces better than curved ones. If you're painting a bag, pull the fabric tight.

    Next I want to get a can and do the bottom of my TAB Gear Mat. Hope you all appreciated the info, have a great weekend.
