Tractorman810 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 i have some of that stuff, i did ponder using it for something, but even the finest one i have has a coarse sandy finish to it ,its a sand paper of sorts afterall ,so decided against it , as i thought the paint wouldnt have a nice smooth finish on it.would prob work for fencing?? but cost wise i recon scrim tape, sues plasters stuff, would be cheaper and better value??
