The good thing about powder is that you can just clean it up with a damp car wash towel and keep it looking new for years. (By the way RedFish, that Cuda hood insert you donated awhile back is next on my "experimentation list" -- I have high hopes for them too.)
Bulletproof after curing, yes. Touchy to mix, no. What I get is a single stage / no mix from Permatex ... just knead the 1 ounce tube a bit and you're ready to go. It's sandable, grindable, easy to work with and good to 2000 degrees so it's perfect under my powder work. The only drawback is that it's $20 for an ounce, but a little goes a long way. I used about a half a tube on this entire console ... one very thin coat here and there at a time. Each takes 4 hours to set up.
