Well, it only took a couple months but, I am now an owner of a tool box!! I also just put on a coat of herculiner in the inside of it. So, as promised my opinion and experiences with it:
It all starts off with you scuffing up the surface you're applying it to. They include a 3M pad in the kit to do this job. I found it to be sorta a yucky job, I don't like manual labor like that. I would have used an electric sander with like 400 grit sandpaper if the bottom of the box wasn't ribbed. The next step is cleaning everything you're applying it to with Xylene but, I couldn't find any so, I used acetone. Nothing like having your head in a box while using acetone.
After you get all that done you then get to move to the real challenge, opening the can! They give you a can opener which was only able to open the can half way in which case I ended up using a screw driver. In the instructions they say you can hand mix the stuff but, they recommend a mixing attachment for a drill. I think they should say, "BEFORE OPENING THIS CAN, YOU BETTER BUY YOURSELF A MIXING ATTACHMENT FOR A DRILL BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT!!" The stuff is almost like roofing cement after the stuff has settled to the bottom. I found applying the stuff pretty easy but, you just have to watch out for clumping. If there is something you don't want to coat with the stuff you might want to mask the stuff off with tape before starting.
Just looking at it, it looks like it should hold up pretty well. I'll put my tools in it tomorrow and see if the stuff still looks good at the end of the week after they've rattled around for a couple hundred miles.
