He she is all turfed up. Not the best job in the world but I guess it's not too bad for a first timer. For some reason I was dreading to have to turf this thing, but it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Did the appliance epoxy paint harden up? I just painted mine and it took it almost a week to fully harden and loose that "rubbery" feel.

It feels like it has hardened up a little since then. It doesn't have quite the rubbery feel but it still scratches very easily.

Over the winter I will spray it with some automotive single stage paint. If I where to use the appliance epoxy again, I would buy it in the 1 quart can and mix it with some hardener then spray it on with a gun. The appliance epoxy colors look awesome but aren't very durable. As of right now, I think you could get better/longer lasting results with regular gloss spray paint...
