And FYI, after all the research I did I found the following. Lizard skin isn't that tough so you really need another layer on top of it to be long lasting. On their website they mention coating it with other products to make it off-road durable... It was designed to be used inside the cab not outside but you can use it underneath truck no prob just might have to keep touching it up often.

My plan is to spray epoxy rust encspsulator as my base coat, then my lizard skin ceramic for temp control, then I'm spraying a rubberized undercoating on top of that for durability.

Just thought I would throw that out there.


We are 482 M. My cab has actually been blasted longer than that. I bought it from a guy something like 4 years ago and he had it blasted who knows when. Then it sat outside under a tarp for about a year and a half before it made it to my place. There is some very light surface rust on a few spot but it comes right off like nothing. That is good to know about the lizard skin. I want to put it down for temp and guys are saying it works good for sound deadener. Your plan sounds pretty good, might have to go with that.
