Yup, not cheap......some websites show the $400 range, but without the activator.

Clear Coat reviews - YouTube

Some might find this interesting, especially after it's painted and how it levels out or holds up.

On YouTube, Foothill Paint and Fabrication did a multi-part story on frame squaring. They are doing a '67 and it was quite a bit off - looking
