Roadster Body inner coating
I know several members on here have used Raptor for lining the inside of the body. Can anyone give me the quantity of Raptor it takes to do the job ?

I used herculiner. 1 gallon did the job. Not sure how that translates to raptor.

Same as nuhale. 1 gallon of Herculiner did the underside of the body, the 4 elephant ears(both sides), the outsides of the trunk, as well as the back of the passenger compartment. I also coated the underside of the foot boxes.

A Total of 4 Liters Works Well!
I used 3 liters to completely cover the underside of the body which was sprayed.
I then rolled on a 4th liter on the tops of each fender which were previously all covered in a layer of Kilmat.

The Kilmat was installed over the Raptor bed liner in an attempt to cushion the body from thrown stones.
The final liter covered and sealed in the Kilmat very nicely.

Hope this helps.

I used the 4 liter UPOL Raptor kit for my Coupe. Would have like a bit more to put a couple more coats on the splashguards. But was OK. That size kit should easily handle a Roadster. Note I bought on Amazon and they list as 4 quarts. But is the same kit.
