In my Tahoe I went over the carpet and folded the edges over then glued it down.....you could never tell carpet was there. It fluffed up the camo is why I left it behind it

TSC? Actually considering same brand, except gloss black for my future. Priced it a couple weeks back for a gallon, the reducer and hardener... Not 100% certain but thinking this may be the route I take when I get to the paint section of my to-do list. I'll probably clear coat though... Again great job!
