Should hold up.. it's an OEM quality stuff. I guess time will tell

I thought Line-X would hold up great, I thought lots of guys ran it. I just didn't like all the weight it added.

The dude says it goes on, nearly molton, at 175 degrees. He didn't think it would take much more than that w/o melting.

look's awesome...........

said that it would withstand 280 degrees. I am going to use it on some under hood areas.

Steve you car is looking fantastic, did you ever speak with FAST?

Give my ass a call

I am anxious to see how it holds up too, but I have really great confidence that it will do JUST fine. All of the FUSOR stuff is amazing, it isn't cheap at all, but all of it works better than anything I have seen so far. The undercoating is really nice, it stays nice and flexible, goes on really uniform and looks amazing. Unless something terribly dramatic happens to change my opinion, which I am 99.9999% certain it won't, this stuff will go on every car I build. Until they come out with something nicer. Seems really silly, but if you see it and touch it in person, you just say "wow, that stuff is cool!"

What is the method of application?

Spray?
Can it be brushed or rolled on?

I'm glad everyone seems to think this is good stuff, I'm anxious to hear how it holds up on Penny as well. I've ordered the exact same stuff to do the underside of my camaro and hopefully some sound deadening inside (might use Fusor 804 for that). I figured if it's good enough for Penny, it's gotta be MORE than good enough for my heap! It does need a special gun, Fusor part no. 312: http://www.lord.com/Default.aspx?tabid=1207#312

I ordered the gun from this place: http://www.crestnetsales.com/sealers.htm
At $128.62 it's WAY cheaper than I could find it locally - I was quoted $275 for the gun here. Hopefully that helps, and I hope I'm not hijacking your thread, Steve! I don't post much, but I'm really enjoying following the progress on Penny, with more than a little envy!

no problem.. these threads are supposed to be about passing along information that may be helpful and not just "hey, look at me!" type deals.

So far I like the Fusor undercoat. I will be curious how it holds up and and how it cleans up. It certainly looks nice and the best part is that it only added a few pounds to the car.

We used their structual foam on some voids in the firewall. That suff would be cool to fill all the A-pillars and other voids since it would stiffen the area and deaden sound.

Thanks for the comments on Penny.. she's getting there.

We put the line-x under my car and it seems to help with vibration and with sound deadening.

Hi Steve,

Yes the foam will help in the Stiffness of the "A" pillars, but your main concern should be in rotational stability. If at all possible I suggest that you "glue" in the front windshield and disregard the rubber boot.

The glued in windshield will add quite a bit to the overall stability of your unibody.

Just a suggestion.
