Thank you for watching! Just a heads up! It's not a fun project and it will add weight. I feel like in the end it was worth it on the X-Maxx but your mileage may vary. I'm not saying don't do it! Just being transparent with you. Thanks again for watching!

How did it go for you?

Does the Gorilla glue you used have a strong toxic smell when applying? Shoe Goo needs well ventilated space and would be nice to find something else that’s not so toxic.

For liability purposes I would say use as the manufacturer suggests on the container. My personal experience is, you can smell the product but it isn't overwhelming. I did my project in my basement. The tube actually says low odor right on it and it is made for interior home repairs.

How did this hold up for you?

It's good. I haven't tried the shoe goo so I can't speak to what's best. I will say I learned a lot on this project and would do it differently if I had to do it again. I would cut much smaller strips of the tape so it would lay down better. I would also maybe spray a light high tack or something to hold the tape before the goo is applied. I've seen some use hot glue. I would also use a lot less goo and or go thinner with it. Pros- definitely a lot more durable. Cons-time-consuming, not a fun job, very heavy. I'm not sure if this is the product I used or just the nature of the application.

I'll make a KZread short of how the body looks now after a lot of bashing. I'm sure you've seen some of my shorts of how I treat the truck so you can get an idea of how well it's working.

It is not fun. Did you do it in small sections or glob and go?

For sure I would do small parts at a time if I did it again. I did not enjoy the project but I will say in the end I'm happy I did it. Hopefully you will feel the same way.

Thats exactly what I think, just get a new shell for £30 to £40 quid Ain't worth the hassle Shoogoo and dry wall tape costs over £25 ain't worth the grief
