Yep, applies like paint. First coat needs to be a light "tie" coat, followed by two full coats, but not "full wet"...The tech sheet describes what to shoot for...I wouldn't try using anything other than a "traditional / old school" siphon feed gun.

But if the price is the same either way, then, heck, I'd just let them strip it off and re-do it. Getting that all done for $200 seems like a great deal. (When you say "get the part for free", you meen the new vinyl stock, I guess?)

It's obvious, but...Just be really careful with removal of all of that stainless steel trim...I'd think it would not be easy to find replacement pieces for that car...
