Regarding the recent request for AFS info:
Have had it on the plane for 3 years. As has been reported, it's a challenge to apply. It can be done, but those of us of average ability will have a steep learning curve applying it without a lot of defects.
I've been disappointed with its durability. It abraids and scratches far too easily. The edges of small defects begin to lift if not sealed (touched up) promptly. It is also solvent sensitive after curing, so be very careful with what is used to clean it.
My major reason for using it was to avoid the isocyanide vapors from solvents used in other systems (lung toxicity) and it is safer for those of us with pulmonary problems. It also gives a very handsome, deep glossy finish.
I would not use it again based on my durabilty experience.
